Not happy about the cheesesteaks
While ESPN broadcasters Dan Mullen, Matt Barrie and sideline reporter Harry Lyles Jr. enjoyed eating cheesesteaks on camera during the Army-Temple game, fans watching shared their reaction.
Imagine watching Dan Mullen eat a Philly cheesesteak, while army runs the triple option to perfection, and STILL thinking the NFL is better than College football

I don’t have Amazon so I have the misfortune of watching ESPN literally non stop talking about Philly cheesesteak sandwiches instead of the football game they are broadcasting pic.twitter.com/9zVORs7DvG

Army vs. Temple predictions
ESPN: Army has a 82% chance to win
According to ESPN's Matchup Predictor, the Army Black Knights have a 82.2% chance to beat the Temple Owls in Week 5.
Covers: Army Black Knights
Douglas Farmer writes: "Obviously, the Knights run often, 33.7% more than the average team does. The Owls struggle against the rush, ranking No. 130 in expected points added (EPA) per rush against at 0.199. Put that in simpler terms: When a team rushes against Temple, it adds an average of a fifth of a point to its likely final tally. Army averages 57 rush attempts per game. It will add plenty of points to its final tally against a defense giving up 5.73 yards per carry. The Knights should get out to an early lead and then keep running the ball through the Owls. Army would kill the clock if it could, but Temple’s defense will be too much of a turnstile for that short of a rout."
Pickswise: Army Black Knights
Michael Petty writes: "Army may not have played any impressive teams so far but Temple doesn’t qualify as impressive either and they are 3-0 straight up and against the spread. The Black Knights’ average margin of victory in those games is 25 points, which is much higher than the spread in this game. They also are 7-3 straight up and 6-4 against the spread in their last 10 games. For my Army vs Temple best bet, I’m taking the Black Knights to win by at least 2 touchdowns."
Winners and Whiners: Army Black Knights
Staff writes: "A clash of styles hits our televisions for college football on Thursday night. Army is averaging 356 rushing yards per game to start the season, they are well coached, give multiple looks, and QB Bryson Daily has been a handful for defenses as he has 340 rushing yards through three games. Army's closest game so far was a 17-point road conference win over Florida Atlantic, Temple is overmatched in this one. Speaking of the line of scrimmage, Temple only had 35 rushing yards against Navy, they will need to rely on the pass, and Army's tough pass defense is averaging over one interception per game. Temple cannot rely on 90-yard passes and 64-yard field goals every week, and won't find any here. Army rolls. Take Army to cover."
Army vs. Temple all-time record
In their most recent match in 2017, the Army Black Knights defeated the Temple Owls with a score of 31-28. However, Temple currently holds the historical record against Army with 7 wins and 6 losses dating back to their first matchup in 1943.
