Scores twice in victory Pierce rushed six times for 31 yards and two touchdowns Saturday against FAU.

Impact Pierce also caught five passes for 25 yards out of the backfield, and the Florida offense is clearly tailored to the run with two dual-threat quarterbacks as well as Malik Davis still in the fold. That could provide fewer opportunities for Pierce overall, though the goal line opportunities will obviously provide a great benefit. Pierce is a great bet to score again at USF next weekend.
