Georgia Tech and Temple will meet for the first time on the gridiron on September 28th when Geoff Collins and his Yellow Jackets will travel to a program and city Collins is very familiar, the Temple Owls and Philadelphia. Collins spent the last two seasons in Philadelphia with the Owls, coaching them to a 15-10 record including a bowl victory over Wake Forest in 2017.
After Collins left the Owls, they hired Miami defensive coordinator Manny Diaz who was in The City of Brotherly Love for a cup of coffee before going back to Miami to be the head man after Mark Richt’s surprise retirement.
