Kwame Vaughn scored 14 points to lead USF (5-11, 0-1). Leading scorer Dior Lowhorn never found a rhythm and was held to eight points on 2-for-11 shooting in 19 minutes.
Ben Allen added 12 points and a career-high 14 rebounds and freshman Matthew Dellavedova dished out a season-best eight assists to go with 13 points and two steals for the Gaels, who shot 55 percent.
