The three schools are tied at 4-2. UConn holds both head to head tiebreakers. They advance with a win. They could also lose if both WVU and Pitt lose. West Virginia beat Pitt so they could advance with a win and a UConn win. Pitt needs a win and both UConn and WVU to lose.

I think Connecticut emerges. They will keep it simple, limit mistakes and give South Florida a healthy dose of running back Jordan Todman. Their defense has forced 14 turnovers the past four games against decent opponents. That could make the difference in a close game. South Florida does not have a dynamic offense, especially with B.J. Daniels hampered by our out entirely with a quad injury. The Bulls may also be due for a letdown after the emotional Miami win.
