Football Hosts UCF in Primetime Conference Matchup

Temple Owls head coach Matt Rhule isn't taking the 0-6 UCF Knights lightly, heading into the Saturday night match-up at Lincoln Financial Field. Although his team is 5-0, he knows the upperclassmen on his team remember the two losses they've suffered to UCF since the two became conference rivals. Coach Rhule also praised his team's efforts in overcoming early mistakes and the emergence of freshman running back Ryquell Armstead. He noted how much the progress of junior quarterback P.J. Walker has helped the team and credited first year quarterbacks' coach Glenn Thomas with assisting the development.
