PHILADELPHIA — Facing off against a rolling South Florida squad undefeated in American Athletic play, Temple continued to prove its resolve in the 46-30 dismantling of the visiting Bulls, surging to top of the East Division in front of 25,950 Friday night at Lincoln Financial Field.
The Owls, lacking in an offensive identity following a tough road loss to Memphis two weeks ago, found comfort behind a powerful ground game against USF. The unit leaned heavily on sophomore RB Ryquell Armstead, who generated a career-high 210 yards on 20 carries for two touchdowns for the evening.
