CHAMPIONSHIP CENTRAL
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Quinton Flowers threw four touchdown passes and Marlon Mack topped 100 yards rushing for the seventh time this season, helping surging South Florida remain in contention for the American Athletic Conference East Division title with a 65-27 rout of Cincinnati on Friday night.
USF (7-4, 5-2) won for the sixth time in seven games following a 1-3 start. The second-place Bulls will close the regular season at winless Central Florida and need to beat the Knights, as well have division leader Temple lose at least one of its final two games to clinch a berth in the inaugural American championship game.
