6.15.22 | Football
PHILADELPHIA – Temple Football announced today the date of its annual Homecoming Game as well as the start time of its first two home games for the 2022 season. New head coach Stan Drayton will make his Lincoln Financial Field debut against Lafayette with a kickoff time of 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, September 10. The following week, on September 17, Temple will hold it Homecoming Game when it hosts Rutgers at 2:00 p.m.
Last month, the American Athletic Conference announced the starting kickoff times for the first week of the 2022 season, along with several primetime and nationally-televised contests. The Owls will begin the season at Duke with an ACC Network prime-time broadcast of its opening day game on Friday, September 2 at 7:30 p.m.
Temple will also play three straight nationally televised games: Thursday, October 13 at UCF (ESPN at 7:00 p.m.), Friday, October 21 vs. Tulsa (ESPN2 at 7:30 p.m.), and Saturday, October 29 at Navy (CBS Sports Network at 3:30 p.m.).
Temple's remaining kickoffs and networks will be announced during the season under the traditional 12-day selection process.
Drayton has been busy this offseason reshaping the roster. His February recruiting class saw the addition of size, length, and speed from a host of incoming freshmen. Temple also enters 2022 with no fewer than a dozen incoming transfers with FBS experience who expect to contribute right away.
That influx of talent, along with an aggressive style of play in all three phases of the team expected from Drayton's new staff, have fans excited about a promising 2022 season.
Season tickets can be ordered by calling the Temple Ticket Sales Office at 215-204-TIXX (8499).
