In their previous three games, the Temple Owls have showcased their talent and determination. One player who has stood out is Alex Starzyk, a powerful defensive lineman. In the last game against Army Black Knights, Starzyk recorded an impressive 5 tackles and 2 sacks, making a significant impact on the field. His performance was crucial in securing the victory for the Owls.


But Starzyk isn't the only standout player on the team. Quarterback Frank Nutile has been consistent in his passing game, with a completion percentage of 68.9% and a total of 290 passing yards in the last three games. Nutile's accuracy and decision-making skills have been instrumental in leading the offense.


On the offensive side, running back Ryquell Armstead has been a force to be reckoned with. He has rushed for an average of 8.4 yards per carry and scored two touchdowns in the past three games. Armstead's explosive speed and agility make him a threat to any defense.


Wide receiver Adonis Jennings has also made significant contributions to the team's success. With 4 receptions for 62 yards in the last game, Jennings showcased his ability to make crucial catches under pressure.


Looking at their overall performance over the past three games, Temple Owls have shown consistency and determination. Their offense has averaged 31 points per game while their defense has held opponents to an average of just 17 points per game.


However, they will face tough competition from Navy Midshipmen who have their own standout players. Quarterback Zach Abey has been a key playmaker for the Midshipmen, with 115 passing yards and 66 receiving yards in the last game. His ability to make accurate throws and create opportunities for his teammates will pose a challenge for the Owls' defense.


Running back Malcolm Perry has also been impressive, rushing for 127 yards and scoring a touchdown in the previous game. His speed and agility make him a threat to break through any defensive line.


Defensively, linebacker Micah Thomas has been a standout player for the Midshipmen, recording 6 tackles and 2 assists in the last game. His ability to read plays and make crucial stops will be crucial in stopping the Owls' offense.


Both teams have shown great potential in their recent performances, making this upcoming game an exciting matchup to watch. The Temple Owls will rely on their star performer Alex Starzyk to lead their defense, while Navy Midshipmen will look to Zach Abey and Malcolm Perry to make big plays on offense.
