The game is nearly eight minutes old and there are still people coming into the Sun Dome. That’s the good news for the Bulls.

The bad news is that they are without injured C Jarrid Famous, who is out with a sprained right knee suffered in practice on Monday.

With 11:41 left here in the first half, Anthony Crater just made a steal and lay-up to give the Bulls a 9-8 lead over the Bearcats.

Needless to say, this is a crucial game for USF, which trails Cincinnati by a game in the Big East standings as both teams try and play their way into the NCAA Tournament with a late-season run.

Back with more shortly.
