No. 22 Navy can edge closer to a spot in the American Athletic Conference title game with a win against South Florida at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa on Friday.The Midshipmen (5-1, 4-0) are the only remaining undefeated team in AAC play and sit atop the West Division with four league games remaining. South Florida suffered its first league setback last week against Temple and dropped to second place behind the Owls in the East Division.Navy has been dominant with its triple-option attack, led by senior quarterback Will Worth. However, Midshipmen coach Ken Niumatalolo is wary of the Bulls, who are scoring a league-best 42.4 points per game.Its another highly explosive offense, another tough challenge for our defense, Niumatalolo said. They spread you out with a lot of different formations and stretch you vertically and horizontally.South Florida (6-2, 3-1) is looking to bounce back from the disappointing 46-30 loss to Temple. The setback not only knocked the Bulls from first-place, it also ended a nine-game winning streak against their AAC division opponents.Navy and its high-powered offense could pose an even bigger challenge.We really didnt do much of anything right. In every aspect, we did something wrong, Bulls coach Willie Taggart said about the loss to Temple. You just cant play that way against a good team on the road and expect to win.The Bulls do have enough talent on offense to get into a shootout with Navy. South Florida quarterback Quinton Flowers has been one of the most dominant players in the AAC and has completed 117 of his 200 pass attempts for 1,722 yards with 15 touchdowns and five interceptions. He is also the teams leading rusher with 745 yards and eight touchdowns on 108 carries.Navy has spent time at practice this week preparing for the multi-faceted Flowers.Flowers is a bigger kid and maybe a more powerful runner, but they are very similar, Niumatalolo said. Whenever the quarterback is able to carry the football it presents some problems. He has great running ability and a strong arm. He throws a really good deep ball.South Florida wide receiver Rodney Adams is one of Flowers favorite targets and he has 34 catches for 502 yards and four touchdowns. Adams also has had some success against Navy, returning a kickoff for a touchdown in the Bulls 29-17 loss in Annapolis last year.Flowers also likes to throw to DErnest Johnson, who has 18 catches for 171 yards and four touchdowns, while rushing for 321 yards and four touchdowns on 59 carries. Marlon Mack is the primary running back for the Bulls with 659 yards rushing on 97 carries with 10 touchdowns.The Bulls will face a stern challenge from the Navy defense, which has forced at least one turnover in 24 of the last 26 games, including in five of six games this year. The Midshipmen are 5-0 when the defense creates a turnover.On offense, Navy will look to run the ball against the Bulls, who have given up huge chunks of yards in their two losses. In the loss to Temple, South Florida allowed 319 rushing yards. Florida State ran for 478 yards in its 55-35 victory over the Bulls on Sept. 24.In both losses we didnt stop the run and couldnt get off the field, Taggart said. We have a ranked Navy team coming in here that is going to run the ball so we have another tough challenge ahead of us.Navy averages 293.2 rushing yards per game. Last week in a 42-28 victory over Memphis, the Midshipmen had 447 rushing yards. Worth ran for a career-high 201 yards and three touchdowns on 31 carries. He also completed three of his four pass attempts for 85 yards with two touchdowns and was named the AAC Offensive Player of the Week.Worth has now scored a touchdown in every game this year and leads the Midshipmen with nine rushing scores on the season. Not bad for a quarterback who is only starting because of a season-ending knee injury to Tago Smith.I thought Will could run our offense, but hes playing a lot better than I thought he would, Niumatalolo said.

LOUIS -- Alexander Steen scored a power-play goal with 59. Adidas Originals Superstar 2 Mujer The Wallabies have been left to rue squandered chances and occasional moments of laziness which coach Michael Cheika says cost them a Test match they should have won.Australias search for a maiden victory at Loftus Versfeld continues after an 18-10 Rugby Championship defeat to South Africa on Saturday (Sunday morning AEST).It was an encouraging enough display but their failure to make their dominance count on the scoreboard opened the door for the Springboks - who were held tryless - to snap a three-game losing streak.We take our points down there and we win the game, Cheika said.We worked quite well to get into situations down there, then we got in there, and we didnt get enough shape to score another two or three tries, which we really should have done.Thats some of the best footy weve played in the middle of the field this season. Maybe we wanted to score too much.It also appears to have come at a heavy cost with new No.8 Sean McMahon (ankle) sent for scans and facing a potentially lengthy spell on the sidelines.McMahon hurt his ankle in a tackle just before the half-hour mark and tried to play on after having it strapped but didnt emerge after half-time.It would have to be something pretty significant for him not to come back out for the second half, Cheika said.All of South Africas points came via recalled five-eighth Morne Steyn, who kicked four penalties, two drop goals and expertly steered his team to victory.Cheika spoke on match eve of persistiing with the Australian way despite the noise around hoodoos, altitude and opposition tactics, and thats exactly what they did - just not for long enough.ddddddddddddThey established a 10-3 lead after a Bernard Foley penalty and a debut Test try in the 14th minute to Scott Sio, who crossed under the posts to cap off an impressive multi-phase play peppered with smart offloads.But the Springboks fought back and turned the match into a grind after Israel Folaus sin-binning six minutes from the break.With only Folau to beat out wide, South African vice-captain Bryan Habana kicked ahead but was clipped as he tried to move past, prompting referee Wayne Barnes to produce his yellow card.Cheika reckoned only a penalty was warranted but admitted Folaus absence cost them valuable momentum.From there, the Springboks simply rode Steyns boot to victory, with their set piece play particularly impressive in the second half as they won a string of scrum penalties.Winger Reece Hodge missed three penalty attempts, two of them opportunities to put Australia ahead.The other was an audacious early crack from approximately 64m that would have equalled the longest penalty scored in Test history.It dropped less than a metre under the crossbar.Thats the game, mate. Weve got a very young, new side ... theyll learn from those experiences, Cheika said.
