There's a whole slate of solid conference matchups this Saturday - Georgia/Florida, USC/Cal, and Ole Miss/Auburn, to name a few - but there's only one showdown that features two ranked teams. One of those teams is...Temple.
#21 Temple will host #9 Notre Dame in a game that should gauge whether or not the Owls can actually play Cinderella this fall. Temple started out the season strongly with wins over Penn State and Cincinnati, but a weak AAC schedule has left them searching for a legitimizing win. In their last five weeks, they've beaten UMass, Charlotte, Tulane, Central Florida, and East Carolina.
