Looks like a nice 0-12 slate for Temple to me!
Looks easy, except for ND, Louisville and RU.
I mean...look at these automatic wins...
Idaho,
Fordahm,
Army,
Memphis
All teams in the lower rung of the 130 or so teams in NCAAF.
Then there's SMU anmd UCF and a bad Houston team....
Sheesh.
TU is almost hande a 500 record at least.
