Play of the Day

Play On: South Florida +2

I don’t think Notre Dame should be favored in this spot. The Irish are coming off their first true road game of the season at Connecticut and it was not a good result as they lost by 12 points to move to 1-1 in the Big East so far this year. They are 12-3 overall but this has come by way of playing a schedule ranked 316th in the nation. They have a big advantage down low with Big East Preseason Player of the Year Luke Harangody as he is averaging 24.2 ppg and 10.1 rpg. He could have a very big game here as the Bulls are not a big team with the loss of Augustus Gilchrist but that does not lead to a definite as he put up 31 points against the Huskies, over 44 percent of the total points, and it still resulted in a loss. This game will be won up top and while the guard play of Notre Dame has been solid, a lot of that was due to the schedule already played.
