TAMPA, Fla., Dec. 3 (UPI) -- Pat White rushed for 170 yards and two touchdowns Saturday as 12th-ranked West Virginia defeated South Florida, 28-13.
White also was 6-of-11 passing for 87 yards with a TD and an interception for the Big East champion Mountaineers (10-1, 7-0), who have won six straight overall. Steve Slaton added 89 rushing yards and a touchdown for West Virginia.
West Virginia next plays in a BCS game -- most likely against Georgia in the Sugar Bowl. The Bulldogs earned the automatic BCS bid from the SEC after they defeated LSU in the conference title game earlier Saturday.
Carlton Hill completed 10-of-24 passes for 98 yards with two interceptions for the Bulls (6-5, 4-3), who lost their final two games of the regular season.
The game was originally scheduled for Oct. 22 but had to be postponed due to the threat of Hurricane Wilma.
