Temple DB could be looking for revenge against Penn State
Penn State is taking on Temple in Week 2, and the Owls have a former Nittany Lion who could be out for revenge.
The Temple Owls and Penn State will face off in a renewed series this weekend. The two teams have clashed 45 times previously, with the Nittany Lions claiming 39 of the last 41 victories. However, Temple has not been idle, having claimed a win in the last meeting between the two sides in 2015.
When assessing Temple's potential, it's crucial not to underestimate them. Safety Kolin Dinkins, in particular, could prove to be a formidable opponent. Dinkins, who previously played for Penn State, is one of the Owls' best defenders. Despite spending most of his time at State College as a special teams player, Dinkins has shown his physicality and versatility by recording three tackles in Temple's first game against Rhode Island this season, a figure that's exceeded his total tackles from last season.
Given Dinkins' pedigree and the motivation to avenge his previous shortcomings against Penn State, the Nittany Lions head coach, Matt Campbell, must closely monitor him to prevent a potential game-wrecker. Keep an eye on Temple DB could be looking for revenge against Penn State.
