Temple board to vote on funds for stadium architect

The Owls surrendered five touchdowns as the 49ers won their first FBS game since 2024 and snapped a 15-game losing streak.

After winning just six games in his first two seasons, Shaw has led a young Temple squad to nine victories and has the Owls on the verge of their first winning season in more than a decade.

In a search for consistency, Temple has a chance to get back on track against winless Charlotte this Saturday. For them, head coach K.C. Keeler, it's all about playing "clean" football.

Coming off a win over previously unbeaten South Florida, the Owls and head coach K.C. Keeler were unable to replicate.

The Owls are 2-3 after Saturday’s 17-13 win against previously unbeaten South Florida, but its record only tells part of the story.

Meanwhile injured quarterback Jaxon Smolik is making his way back from a foot injury.

Temple responded to a costly late turnover, with Ajani Sheppard scoring a touchdown after his fumble nearly cost his team a victory.

The Owls sit in fourth place in the Big East with five conference matchups remaining. However, coach Michelle Vittese wants her team focused on improving to prove it belongs in the tournament.

Temple’s American slate includes 18 games, with both teams opening conference play on Dec. 30.

Temple’s “brutal” losses came down to the final stretch. The Owls are preparing to start Ajani Sheppard and fine-tuning details against the Bulls, the top team in the American who remain unbeaten.

The Owls now will need to win five of their final eight games to become bowl eligible, but Keeler saw signs of growth, despite the loss to the Black Knights.

Army scored a touchdown late in the fourth quarter to take the four-point lead, and the Owls' last gasp stalled for the program's third straight loss.

The women’s team faces three opponents that made an appearance in last season’s NCAA Tournament. The men’s will host two games at the Palestra as part of the arena’s 100th anniversary season.

Jaxon Smolik left last Saturday’s game with a foot injury. With a shorter week to prepare, coach K.C. Keeler is giving Sheppard the start on Friday and Smolik time to recover.

K.C. Keeler kept the offense on the field for a two-point conversion that would decide the game. But Ajani Sheppard’s pass sailed over the hands of Peter Clarke.

Through two games, Temple's defense has improved in points allowed, rushing yards allowed, and total defense from last season. It all comes down to how Smith leads the unit.

Toledo stands where Temple is building toward. Saturday's matchup should be a temperature check for the Owls and serve as their first true test of the season.

Keeler has not yet announced a full-time starter at quarterback, but expects Smolik to get the start again over Ajani Sheppard for a road matchup with Toledo on Saturday.

Porter Martone, Trevor Zegras, and Matvei Michkov all found the back of the net, with Michkov adding an assist as the Flyers snapped their nine-game winless streak to start the season.
