Temple has a chance to win its first bowl game since 2011 when it faces Florida International University on Thursday in the Bad Boy Mowers Gasparilla Bowl in Florida.
Redshirt-junior wide receiver Ventell Bryant led Temple in receiving during Friday’s win against Cincinnati after missing its game on Nov. 2 for what coach Geoff Collins called “an internal matter.”
Temple will face the Bearcats on Friday at Nippert Stadium in Ohio, where each team will be desperate to win to maintain its chance for bowl eligibility.
