The Bulls are seeded third in the four-team region and will play second-seeded Mississippi State (33-24) on Friday at 6 p.m. ESPNU will televise the game.
Top-seeded Florida State (52-5) and Howard (31-22) round out the field.
USF is 44-14 overall and finished second in the American Athletic Conference tournament, losing 11-0 to UCF in the championship game.
That snapped an eight-game winning streak. The 44 wins are USF’s most in a single season since 2016.
