Temple joining Conference USA

Temple is following the recent trend of "conference mixups", and will be on their way to Conference USA for football. The switch from the MAC to the C-USA will take place in 2011, which gives Temple one more shot to claim a MAC title.

So what's the difference between the MAC and Conference USA? The bowl games. The biggest difference is the bowl lineups, with the C-USA receiving more exposure when it comes to the selection of bowl matchups.

With the move not technically official yet, it's hard to give any sure facts as to the matter, but the move is a definitely a step in the right direction for Temple football.

Just imagine the scenario if Temple wins the MAC as they are expected too, and then go to the C-USA and win the conference title in their first season. Talk about a crazy turn of events.

So who can Temple expect to see once 2011 comes?


  • East Carolina

  • Marshall

  • Memphis

  • Southern Miss

  • UAB

  • UCF

  • Houston

  • Rice

  • SMU

  • Tulane

  • Tulsa

  • UTEP

(Note: There is also another team that is expected to join the C-USA in 2011.)
