Temple Coming Off Impressive Victory

Temple scored 45 points against the Utah State Aggies, and that was enough for the 45-29 victory.

Evan Simon had a huge game completing 17 of his 27 passes for 271 yards, five touchdowns, and one interception. He also rushed 11 times on the ground for 49 yards and a touchdown. 

On the season Temple is averaging 19.8 points while their defense is giving up 36.5 points per game. They are averaging only 0.75 points per game in the first quarter and they need to find a way to get out to a faster start. Temple will meet UConn after this game.
