MIAMI (AP) -- Dontravious Wilson rushed for three touchdowns as UCF steamrolled Florida International 53-14 on Saturday night.

Wilson scored all his TDs -- on runs of 1, 15 and 12 yards -- on just 10 carries in the first half, the first UCF back to rush for three touchdowns in a half since Storm Johnson in the 2014 Fiesta Bowl.

Adrian Killins added a TD run of 62 yards, C.J. Jones added a 1-yard rush and Nick Patti scored on a 9-yard run as the Knights (2-2) compiled six rushing TDs in a game for the first time since 2011.

UCF racked up 501 yards total offense with 26 first downs to 189 yards and 11 first downs for FIU (0-4). None of the Knights' scoring drives lasted longer than three minutes, with Wilson's second TD capping a six-second drive.

Alex McGough and Maurice Alexander combined for 11 of 23 passing for 109 yards for FIU.
