Pittsburgh upsets another ranked team topping South Florida


Associated Press
TAMPA, FLA.: LeSean McCoy ran for two touchdowns and Bill Stull threw for another as Pittsburgh upset No. 10 South Florida 26-21 on Thursday night.

The Panthers (4-1, 2-0 Big East) have beaten the last three nationally ranked teams they have faced, including No. 23 Cincinnati and No. 2 West Virginia in 2007. They have won two of the last three games against South Florida (5-1, 0-1) in Tampa.

Stull finished 16-for-27 for 228 yards.

Quarterback Matt Grothe accounted for most of South Florida's offense, but the Bulls didn't score any points on offense in the first half. Grothe was 11-of-20 for 129 yards and rushed 11 times for 25 yards, including a 1-yard keeper for a touchdown in the third.

Grothe threw a 22-yard touchdown pass to Jessie Hester in the fourth quarter to give the Bulls a 22-20 lead. But Pittsburgh came right back to take the lead, covering 60 yards on three plays in a quick drive that ended with a 3-yard run by McCoy. The 2-point attempt failed.

McCoy, a sophomore, rushed 28 times for a game-high 142 yards, his second consecutive game over 100. Mike Ford ran 14 times for 73 yards for the Bulls.

South Florida struggled in the first half, and the offense was held to just 77 yards. Grothe was 5-of-12 with an interception. The pick by Don DeCicco was the first interception for Grothe in 107 passes.

The Bulls had a 42-yard field-goal attempt blocked by Greg Williams, and on their next field-goal attempt, the Bulls faked the kick, but backup quarterback Grant Gregory failed to convert on fourth down.

All-American junior defensive end George Selvie did not start for the second consecutive game for South Florida, although he entered the game with 10:22 left in the second quarter and had two tackles, one for a loss.

South Florida forced two fumbles, both recovered by linebacker Kion Wilson.

The Bulls scored first when Quenton Washington broke through untouched and blocked a punt by Dave Brytus. Charlton Sinclair picked up the fumble, returning it 27 yards to score.
