PHILADELPHIA (AP) -Here’s a first: Temple is picked to win the MAC.
Gone are the days when it seemed like a winless season for the Owls was a real possibility. Coach Al Golden says fans approach him asking for a bowl game in a warmer climate and counting on a 10-win season.
Golden wants Temple to become the next Utah or Boise State.
Up first is winning the Mid-American Conference. The Owls are the favorite to win the East division.
Bernard Pierce had 1,361 yards rushing and 16 touchdowns last season. The Owls bought billboards and ads at bus and train stops around the city to promote Pierce as a Heisman Trophy candidate.
The Owls open the season Friday against Villanova in the Mayor’s Cup game.
