A couple of games into the season, South Florida and Virginia Tech will see how they react to vastly different situations.
They have short turnaround times to respond to their latest results.
South Florida (1-1) and Virginia Tech (2-0) face off Sunday night in the Basketball Hall of Fame Tip-off at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn.
Virginia Tech will enter the game on a huge high after a comeback for an 81-73 overtime victory against No. 3 Villanova late Saturday night.
"If we can take this and continue to build on this," Hokies coach Mike Young said of the possibilities, calling the upset a good step two games into the season.
