Pierce Listed as Game-Time Decision

When Temple squares off against Army next weekend, star running back Bernard Pierce may be able to suit up.

When Pierce suffered the injury in the third quarter of the Penn State game this past weekend, his right leg looked to be more seriously damaged then just a "game-time decision" would suggest.

However, if Pierce is unable to go then Matt Brown would be next in-line.

Against Penn State, Brown was unable to convert on a third-and-short in the final quarter, which gave Penn State all the momentum following a huge defensive stop.

Brown composed 48 yards on 12 carries in the game, averaging 4.0 yards per run.

If Pierce can go, Temple will be a heavy favorite against Army; if he can't, then Temple could be in for a serious battle against the Black Knights.
