ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Quinton Flowers passed for three touchdowns and ran for two more as South Florida routed Central Florida 44-3 Thursday night.

USF (8-4, 6-2 American Athletic Conference) won for the seventh time in its last eight games and still has a chance to play in the conference championship game if UConn beats Temple Saturday night. UCF (0-12, 0-8) finished the season winless for the second time in 11 years.

Flowers completed 14 of 21 passes for 176 yards and had 87 yards rushing on 18 carries. He had scoring passes of 26 and 1 yard to Sean Price and a 4-yarder to Chris Barr. He scored on runs of 3 and 5 yards.

Marlon Mack picked up 102 yards on 18 carries for USF, his fourth-straight game over 100 yards.

UCF scored on its first possession, a 28-yard field goal by Matthew Wright, but didn't threaten again.
