Cincinnati Basketball: TV coverage, where to watch the Bearcats face South Florida

With a chance to secure a third straight win, the Cincinnati Bearcats will take on the South Florida Bulls tonight at 7:00 PM. The upcoming matchup will be broadcasted on ESPN+ and fuboTV.

Bearcats senior guard David DeJulius had just seven points in the last-second loss so expect him to come out aggressive tonight alongside Jeremiah Davenport, Landers Nolley II and others.

Even though the Bulls are currently winless at home in conference play this year, it should be a competitive matchup as Cincinnati looks to extend its 6-game win streak at South Florida.

Bulls players to watch include senior guard Tyler Harris, junior center Russel Tchewa and South Carolina transfer Keyshawn Bryant. Harris averages a team-best 16.6 points per game.
