Gameday+ | Ohio college spotlight: Kiel excited to be back as Bearcats QB

Cincinnati at Temple

3:30 P.M., PHILADELPHIA

Records: Cincinnati (4-3, 1-3 American) vs. Temple (5-3, 3-1 American)

Last meeting: Owls won 34-26 in 2015 in Cincinnati

It was during a senior meeting on a Sunday night nearly three weeks ago when Gunner Kiel, then the third-string quarterback, found out how much he meant to University of Cincinnati teammates.

The Bearcats had lost three of four games, and had scored more than 20 points only once in that span, and one by one, teammates demanded that coach Tommy Tuberville replace Hayden Moore with Kiel.
