What To Watch For: AAC Week 8

The weekend begins with a big one in the East division, when #22 Temple visits East Carolina on Thursday night. It’s also the first week that we have a full slate of six AAC games.

Here’s the scenario: If Temple wins, you can go ahead and set them in stone as the East division champion. A win against Memphis later in the year would allow them to host the game at Lincoln Financial Field. If ECU wins, things get real interesting, as ECU would tie Temple in the loss column and hold the tiebreaker. This is going to be a tough one for Temple on the road in Greenville during a short week.
