Temple 28, Miami (O.) 10

The Owls (2-4, 1-2 Mid-American Conference) needed something good to happen. Now they have two road wins, which is one more than they had in Al Golden's first two seasons.

Redshirt freshman quarterback Chester Stewart didn't practice last week because of a leg injury. Yet, in his second start, he threw for three scores, two in the final quarter. Vaughn Charlton didn't have to play, which means he can still redshirt. The hope is that Adam DiMichele (shoulder) is able to return for the Oct. 21 home game against Ohio.

This week, Temple visits two-time defending MAC champ Central Michigan (3-2, 3-0), which like Miami (1-4, 0-1) will be coming off a bye.

Mark D'Onofrio's defense has yet to allow a point in the opening period. This was the fourth time it didn't allow any in the first half.

Temple had three fumble recoveries and an interception.

The Owls led at intermission, 14-0. It was a four-point game after 45 minutes.

They won't be favored at Central Michigan. Likely not at Navy (Nov. 1) either. But the MAC has more than its share of bad teams. The Owls play many of them, most at home (Ohio, Kent State, Eastern Michigan and Akron). So something around six wins, which seemed like a logical projection in August, remains a reasonable enough goal. Their last winning season was 1990.

Villanova 38, William & Mary 28

It looked like a dangerous trip for the Wildcats (4-1, 2-0 Colonial Athletic Association), ranked 14th in Division I-A and coming off a home win over No. 1 Richmond. But they scored the first 35 points in Williamsburg, Va.

Last season on the Main Line, they also scored 35 in the first 30 minutes against the Tribe (2-2, 0-1), on the way to a 63-24 win.

This time, things got closer late. But 'Nova recovered an onside kick with just more than 4 minutes left.

Chris Whitney threw for a career-high three TDs and ran for another. The 'Cats scored following a blocked field goal, fumble recovery and blocked punt.

Aaron Ball, who hurt Richmond, rushed for 137 yards on 22 attempts, including a 32-yard score.
