Fundamentals not looking good here for finesse-oriented USF, which was unnerved by the withering physicality of Saint Mary's in the Gaels' 71-51 romp in Moraga two weeks ago. The Dons were bullied that night as SMC hardly bothered shooting 3s (just 1 for 5) and instead just decided to bludgeon the Dons by attacking the paint for ultra high-percentage looks. The result was 19 assists and 62% FG shooting, while the Dons withered in the final 20 minutes as they ended up just 14 for 52 from the floor (26.9%) and only 6 for 27 beyond the arc (22.2%). The last two seasons, note the Gaels have notched a pair of 17-point wins on the Hilltop. Play Saint Mary's
