Figured I'd get this thread started early as I've already tuned out of the Clemson/Wake Forest game.

I feel like Temple is ripe for an ass-kicking but I'm not going to put my money where my mouth is.

temple sucks but after they beat Ecu last Saturday I can't tell if it was a fluke or was I wrong about them.

 

[Frank Costanza]

ECU's a fraud, and so was that Temple win. Outgained 435-125, and ECU gave them 5 fumbles.

Ideal letdown spot for Temple tonight

As a Temple alum and supporter they are tough to cap. TU offensive line is very young and injured. I was in the stadium for the ECU game last week and the weather was horrific. It was quickly apparent that the ECU QB had 0% chance to throw the ball down the field. Temple d is not as strong as they are being played up to be in the local media. Tulsa and Navy had little trouble running against them. Temple offense is sporadic at best. However they do have 2 recent big time recruits that were just awarded ( 2-4 weeks ago) eligibility for this season.
Former Archbishop Wood tight end Colin Thompson announced on Monday evening his plans to transfer from Florida to Temple. The 6-foot-4, 256-pounder was a four-star recruit when he signed with Florida in 2012. Thompson played in three games over two seasons with the Gators as he battled foot injuries. He visited Penn State last month.

Thompson made the big play last week. He is beginning to see more playing time.

Keith Kirkwood 2013 (Freshman): Appeared in eight games, making five starts at wide receiver…finished the season with 12 receptions for 250 yards and four touchdowns…started the season-opener against USC (Aug. 29) and caught 60-yard touchdown…season-high 84 receiving yards on two catches against the Trojans…season-high four catches for 78 yards and a score against Army (Nov. 30)…also scored against Fresno State (Sept. 28) and at Utah State (Nov. 2)…named to the academic all-MW team.
If Walker (QB) has some time, these guys can make plays but that has been the issue all year. It appears that the O-Line will have a redshirt DEFENSIVE player starting tonight. I haven't seen enough of Memphis to comment on their team.

Weather is cool with a projected diminishing wind to about 7 MPH by gametime.

Mr. Lang is risking 30 dimes on Wyoming +7.5

Dr. Slob on my knob is on Utah St. His "math model" likes the game up to -9.

ECU a Fraud? Harsh words there, constanza. More like a team from the South coming up to the rust belt and getting awful weather none of them are used to and their worse nightmare coming true. Course, I could be too close to the situation so there's that as well.

 

[Carolina Guy]

I'm torn on USU and Wyo. You know the Cowboys are gonna give 'em their best shot and their capable of winning this game at home. Leaning Wyo at home now that they are getting 7'.
