The Charleston Southern Buccaneers haven’t looked all that great against decent competition, as their two wins came against the bottom of the barrel. The South Florida Bulls don’t shoot the ball well enough to blow teams out, but there’s no doubt they have a clear talent edge in this spot. If USF can’t pull away here at home, there’s a problem. I’ll lay the chalk, but I’m not excited about it.
