SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- Being down 17-0 to Syracuse was no problem for South Florida on Saturday. Not with its quick-strike offense. And not with the Bulls playing in the Carrier Dome, one of its favorite road venues.Its a great environment, we just had to block out the crowd, come out and play football, said receiver Rodney Adams, who scored three touchdowns. The turf felt like a speed track. I liked it.The rest of his teammates did, too, especially after the first quarter when the Bulls (3-0) found themselves trailing big. All the Bulls did the rest of the way was outscore the Orange (1-2) 45-3 for a 45-20 win. The victory moved South Florida to 5-0 at the Dome.It was a slow start, but we had to just calm down and play football like we normally do, Adams said. Thats exactly what we did. Coach (Willie) Taggart preached about facing adversity. We calmed down and just played football.Syracuse dominated the first 15 minutes but its offense stalled and defense yielded quick scores the rest of the way. The Bulls stormed back to win in a laugher.Were got hit by a storm, said running back Marlon Mack, who added two scores, but Coach T said we just need to fight back and stay calm.We knew wed face adversity and I wanted to see how this 2016 team handled it, Taggart said. They didnt flinch. They (Syracuse) threw the first punch and our guys kind of took it, then our guys settled down and thing started to really take off for us.I thought the first part of the game we were able to do the things we wanted to do, Syracuse coach Dino Babers said. I thought we started off well. Once the second quarter, third quarter, second half (started), we werent quite able to finish. I thought we could really win that game and Im a little disappointed that we didnt.The Bulls, who have won 10 of their last 12 games, gained at least 200 yards on the ground for the eighth-straight game, led by Macks 115. South Florida has scored 149 points this season. The Bulls had four scoring drives under two minutesDespite the lopsided score, the Orange outgained the Bulls 549-456 and had 30 first downs to the Bulls 20. But things werent close on the scoreboard as the Bulls kept the Orange out of the end zone in the final 45 minutes despite a stifling Dome and despite Syracuse running 105 plays, which shattered the school single-game record and tied the most in ACC history.Heat? We live in Florida, Taggart said. It was a little cool in there today. We just tried to keep our guys fresh, and rotate them in and out the best we could.Taggart said his defense made some basic adjustments after the first quarter.Tackling, tackling, tackling, he said. There were a lot of missed tackles early and our guys did a better job of tackling. Things turned around for us.DErnest Johnson returned a punt 84 yards to score for USF.Quinton Flowers was 12 of 24 for 183 yards passing for the Bulls and rushed for 51 more. Eric Dungey was 32-for-48 for 350 yards and two TDs for Syracuse. Dontae Strickland led SUs ground game with 127 yards. Erv Philips and Amba Etta-Tawo had 10 and eight receptions, respectively, for Syracuse.Playing with a depleted secondary and a defense that was torched by Louisville a week ago, Syracuse dominated the opening quarter, outgaining USF 214-64 yards. The Orange registered 12 first downs in the quarter to USFs three and scored on pass plays of 24 and 47 yards from Dungey to Philips and Brisly Estime, and a 40-yard field goal by Cole Murphy.TAKEAWAYS:USF: Mack was held pretty much in check by the Orange -- at least until late in the third quarter. Mack, who gained 184 yards against SU a year ago, had 55 yards on five carries in the first half, but 40 of those came on one play. He scampered untouched for a 52-yard touchdown late in the third quarter and now has 14 100-yard games, a South Florida record.SYRACUSE: The Orange was playing without three-quarters of its starting secondary. Antwan Cordy and Juwan Dowels, who were both injured against Louisville, are out for the season with forearm and knee injuries, respectively, and Kielan Whitner also sat out Saturday.UP NEXT:USF: The Bulls host in-state foe Florida State next Saturday.

Peter Gammons, an analyst for Major League Baseballs network and website, drew the ire of hockey fans on Sunday when he criticized the two NHL teams on Twitter for their physical game the night before. CHICAGO -- The soreness finally caught up to White Sox outfielder Melky Cabrera.The veteran switch hitter aggravated a right wrist injury during Chicagos 4-0 loss to Minnesota on Tuesday night and will miss a couple of days with a mild sprain.Cabrera originally hurt his wrist when he tried for a diving catch during a 13-2 loss at Cleveland on June 18. He tweaked it again on a swing in the series opener against the Twins and hit his wrist against the wall while going after Brian Doziers second homer of the game.Its difficult because I want to play, but the doctors said the best for me right now is just to take a rest for a couple of days because I have inflammation there, Cabrera said through a translator. But yeah, for me, I want to play. I dont like to be on the bench. I want to play because the team needs me and I need the team.Cabrera, who is batting .294 with eight homers and 39 RBI in 74 games, had an MRI on Wednesday. He signed a $42 million, three-year contract with Chicago in Decembber 2014.dddddddddddd.Manager Robin Ventura said he doesnt think Cabrera will need a trip to the disabled list.Its tough, he wants to be in there, he wants to play, he wants to fight through it, Ventura said. But the training staff, the medical staff thinks its better that he sits for three or four days to have that heal.Avisail Garcia got the start in left against the Twins on Wednesday night. While Cabrera could play the field and doesnt notice the injury when he hits from the right side, Ventura said they plan to stay away from him -- leaving the White Sox with just two position players on the bench.You dont like anytime you dont have Melky in there, Ventura said. Hes a switch hitter, middle of the lineup, it hurts to not have him in there. Were going to have to figure out a way to make up for that.---Jay Cohen can be reached at http://www.twitter.com/jcohenapCheap Jerseys ChinaNFL Jerseys ChinaNFL Jerseys WholesaleDiscount Basketball JerseysCheap NHL Jerseys AuthenticCheap Baseball Jerseys Free ShippingCheapest College Jerseys SaleCheap Football Jerseys ChinaNike NFL Jerseys CanadaWholesale NHL Jerseys From ChinaMLB Jerseys Outlet CanadaWholesale NBA Jerseys Canada StoreCheap Soccer Jerseys ChinaCheap Authentic Jerseys Canada ' ' '
