It doesn’t seem like you’re so bad that they would need sympathy because you attended…

Well, Temple blew it. They could have clinched the East Division of the American Athletic Conference and clinched a birth in the American Athletic Conference Championship game. But instead they blow it against the South Florida Bulls. They lost 44-28. What a pathetic performance. Temple should have been able to beat them, no problem, but they blew it. I knew this was bound to happen. They have had trouble at the start of multiple games this season, they were always able to make up for it in the 2nd half. It happened again tonight, only this time they were not able to come back. Now I have doubts they can win the division. They have, no doubt, knocked themselves out of the rankings.

*sigh* : (

don’t know. it sure looked suspicious. I don’t blame the announcer for thinking it was a fake job. Even if he really was injured that badly, why did he wait until that exact moment to go down?

Seriously, why do you post things that can be found immediately on any number of sports sites, not to mention Google?

I think you’re just trying to catch my post count.

all I did was post links this time. I do so for convenience, and in the hope of generating conversation in this thread.

Temple beat Memphis yesterday, 31-12! Now a win next week or a loss by South Florida wins them the East Division of the American Athletic Conference.

Temple is back in the rankings of the USA Today Coaches Poll! They are #24.

Man, that loss by Ohio State really knocked them down in the rankings. I’m very curious to see what the other poll and the Playoff rankings will show.

I’m curious if Nebraska will be able to beat Iowa this coming week. They’ve been poor all season but after their Michigan State win, maybe they’ve pulled things together.

I’d say the odds are stacked heavily against you, but upsets do happen in College Football.

Temple is back in the AP Top 25 Press Poll as well! Temple is #25 in that poll.

Ohio took a nose dive in the press poll as well. I will be very interesting to see what the playoff committee has to say . . .

Nebraska has a very, very long history of doing absolutely horrible when they need to bring their best game. I do think that Michigan State was a lot better than Iowa though and Nebraska beat them. So who knows?
