Time to Bull-ieve, America. The University of South Florida men’s basketball team is riding a 13 conference game winning streak, with back-to-back sold-out home games at the Yuengling Center (including a W over the ranked Florida Atlantic University). The AP Polls have taken notice, and USF is officially number 25 in the nation heading into March. It’s a good time to be a USF fan.
The 14 wins in conference play are the most in program history, surpassing the 12 wins in the Big East in 2011-12. The 13-game winning streak is the longest winning streak in program history, surpassing a 12-game streak set during the 1980-81 season. The back-to-back sellouts mark a first in program history. It is just the second time in program history that there were two sellouts in the same season.
