No. 24 South Florida scores 4 TDs in a 3 1/2-minute span and hands North Texas its 1st loss
Byrum Brown accounted for five touchdowns, Jhalyn Shuler returned a fumble 34 yards for South Florida's fourth TD in span of 3 1/2 minutes and the 24th-ranked Bulls beat North Texas 63-36.
The Gators (2-3, 1-1) snapped a three-game losing streak by hanging on for a wild 29-21 win that came down to the final seconds. Florida racked up 457 yards against what had been a stingy Texas defense that entered the game ranked among the best in the nation.
These 3 matchups will play a huge role in deciding who wins when Florida visits Texas A&M on Saturday in Week 7 action.
Byrum Brown accounted for five touchdowns as No. 24 South Florida erupted for 28 straight points to hand previously unbeaten North Texas its first loss of the season, 63-36 on Friday night. Brown threw three touchdown passes and ran for two more, while Jhalyn Shuler’s 34-yard fumble return saw the Bulls (5-1, 2-0 AAC) pull away in the second half.
That is no easy feat. The Aggies are 4-0 at home including two consecutive SEC victories. Mike Elko has Texas A&M playing terrific offense, and the defense finally held up its end of the bargain in those two conference wins by allowing a combined 19 points to Auburn and Mississippi State.
The Florida Gators dropped Texas quarterback Arch Manning six times last week, which marked a season-high. How does that translate to their upcoming game against Texas A&M and their quarterback, Marcel Reed?
