Darius Tice, Quinton Flowers lead No. 21 USF to 43-7 rout of Temple

Darius Tice rushed for 117 yards and two touchdowns, and USF (4-0) scored at least 30 points in a nation-leading 21st consecutive game. Dual-threat quarterback Quinton Flowers and an explosive offense usually keys the team's success, however that's beginning to change. The team had four interceptions Thursday night, boosting its season total to 12 in four games. The Bulls had eight all last season, when USF prospered despite having a leaky defense. In part because of the strides made on defense, the Bulls have not lost since falling by 16 points to Temple last October in Philadelphia -- a setback that wound up costing them a berth in the AAC championship game .
