One of the games worth watching early on Friday is East Carolina vs South Florida in the quarterfinals of the American Athletic Conference tournament. The reason for that is that USF is still in a very precarious spot in terms of NCAA Tournament qualification. Here, we expect them to get a win and cover the spread against the East Carolina Pirates to help their chances of getting in, as the Bulls should be able to score early and often on an opponent who went just 7-11 in conference this year.
