TEMPLE ACCEPTS INVITATIONA TO JOIN THE MID-AMERICAN CONFERENCE FOR FOOTBALL



5/17/2005

PHILADELPHIA – Temple University President David Adamany today announced that the University has accepted an invitation for its football program to compete in the Mid-American Conference.

The move to the Mid-American Conference will take place for the 2005 season, with Temple adding a home game against Western Michigan to increase its total to four MAC opponents for the upcoming season.

Temple will play a six-game conference schedule in 2006 and a full eight-game conference schedule, with eligibility to compete for the MAC Championship, to take place in 2007. The Owls will be eligible for one of the conference’s two bowl affiliations in 2005 and 2006.

"Temple University is honored and excited to have been invited to join the Mid-American Conference," said Adamany. “The MAC is a perfect fit for Temple University, both on and off the field of competition. Besides fielding quality football teams, as evidenced by last year’s record number of bowl bids, the MAC is the leader among Division I-A conferences in terms of graduating its student-athletes in the sport of football.

“That combination of academic and athletic excellence is also part of Temple’s mission.
