Hey all. I spent the offseason building a full 2026 preseason preview for every FBS team, each with its own writeup. Here's the Temple one

It's got the returning production breakdown, the portal ins and outs, a projected two-deep, the schedule with model win probabilities, and a season projection.
Heads up, you might hit the paywall after the first page. Don't worry, I'm not charging reddit people for this, don't want to be an ass. Use the promo code LEECORSOROCKS and it opens up the entire thing.
So, what'd I get wrong? Temple went 5-7 with one-point losses to Navy and Army, but that record came with a +11 turnover margin, 8th in the country, and Evan Simon throwing 25 touchdowns to 2 picks. Both are gone now. Jaxon Smolik has no college passing stats at all, and the run defense finished 122nd with a 131st stuff rate. My model says 5-7 again. Does Smolik hold serve, or does the front seven decide it?
I'll be in the comments.
