South Florida relied on the efforts of Jayden Reid, who scored 13 points along with six rebounds, and Selton Miguel, who scored 21 points. As a matter of fact, that’s the most points Miguel has scored all season.
The Great Danes’ victory was their sixth straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 7-5.

This contest is one where the number of possessions is likely to be a big factor: Albany have been smashing the glass this season, having averaged 37.8 rebounds per game. However, it’s not like South Florida struggles in that department as they’ve been averaging 37.2 rebounds per game. Given these competing strengths, it’ll be interesting to see how their clash plays out.
Albany couldn’t quite finish off South Florida in their previous meeting back in November of 2015 and fell 63-61. Can Albany avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We’ll find out soon enough.
