Temple was an auto-fade early in the season. But the Owls have turned things around covering four of their last five games.
The key to the Owls' turnaround is the return to health of Evan Simon. He had a 122.3 passer rating in leading the Owls to a 20-10 win against Tulsa last week. Simons has completed 65 percent of his passes and has a 10-to-3 touchdown-to-interception ratio.
Mainly my involvement in this matchup is to fade East Carolina. The Pirates have lost four of their past five games. They can't stop the run, nor run the ball effectively. East Carolina ranks 96th in total yards and 97th in scoring defense.
