South Florida cornerback Deatrick Nichols breaks up a pass intended for Temple wide receiver Ventell Bryant (87) to bring up fourth down during the third quarter Saturday.
TAMPA, Fla. — Willie Taggart has a clear vision of what he wants to see South Florida become again.
''Winning and going bowling and doing all those things,'' the third-year coach said Saturday night after the surging Bulls upset No. 22 Temple 44-23 to keep the Owls from clinching the American Athletic Conference East Division title.
USF's biggest win under Taggart was also its first over a ranked opponent since winning at Notre Dame, in 2011.
