• Today's game marked Temple's debut in the Mid-American Conference. After two years as an independent, the Owls resume league action for the first time since the 2004 season. TU played 14 seasons as a member of the Big East.

• Temple's last win in conference play was a 34-24 decision over Syracuse on Nov. 13, 2004, at Lincoln Financial Field.

• Fifteen freshmen, including 14 true freshmen, saw action in today's game. Two (LG Lloyd Codada and OLB Amara Kamara) received starting nods.

• Junior DB Georg Coleman's interception in the first quarter was his first this season and the third of his career.

• True freshman Daryl Robinson's 38-yard catch, his career long to date, in the second quarter was his second reception of the game and just the third of his collegiate career.

• Sophomore LB John Haley recovered a fumble, the third of his career, for the second consecutive game.

• True freshman Amara Kamara's fumble recovery in the third, which averted a Buffalo touchdown, was the first of his career.
