Boca Raton Bowl
Temple split its last six games after a 7-0 start; Owls are in first bowl since '11, their third since 1979- somehow coach Rhule is staying at Temple, which has to help here. AAC teams are 3-6 in bowl games in their existence, but none of those games were against MAC teams. Owls beat UMass of MAC 25-23 back in September (TY498-438). Toledo allowed 41+ points in last three bowls, but won two of the three; Rockets split their last four games after a 7-0 start- they have senior QB who started his career at Alabama.
