Passing attack leads Owls one step closer to division title

The Owls are now one win away from heading to back-to-back American Athletic Conference Championship games.

Temple’s defense pitched its second straight shutout and redshirt-sophomore wide receiver Ventell Bryant helped the Owls pick up their fifth win a row with a 31-0 victory against Tulane on Saturday at Yulman Stadium in New Orleans.

Temple (8-3, 6-1 American Athletic Conference) can clinch the East Division with a win next week at home against East Carolina.

With their ground game bottled up early, the Owls went away from the run and decided to stretch the field. The result was a huge game for Bryant, who caught nine passes for 168 yards and a touchdown.
