If Temple wasn't playing Penn State this season, I'd definitely choose the Nittany Lions, but because they aren't, I have to choose Rutgers.
Actually, if Temple were to make a bowl game, I'd love to see them play any of their old Big East/eastern independent rivals (Pittsburgh, Syracuse, West Virginia, Boston College, Virginia Tech, etc.).

Interesting that a team already on our 2014 schedule, Penn State, is (currently) tied with a team we don't play until 2020 (Rutgers). I'd rather beat Penn State in one bowl game this regular season and then settle a score with Rutgers in the postseason without having to wait until 2020 to get that bad taste out of my mouth. Unfortunately, Rutgers won't be making a bowl this season but I hope Temple will.
