What To Watch For
--Temple is looking for its first Top 25 finish in 36 years and hopes that winning the Boca Raton Bowl will put the exclamation point on the program's turnaround.
--The quarterback matchup will see P.J. Walker under center for Temple and Philip Ely call the signals for Toledo. Walker has completed 57 percent of his passes for 2,737 yards with 19 touchdowns and seven interceptions, while Ely has connected on 54.9 percent of his throws for 2,680 yards with 21 scores and 10 picks.
--This bowl game will mark Jason Candle's coaching debut for Toledo. Candle joined on with the team as the slot receivers and tight ends coach in 2009 and worked his way through as the wide receivers coach and eventually the offensive coordinator. Candle was then named the associate head coach in 2014 before being announced as the successor to Matt Campbell, who defected for Iowa State University, on Dec. 2.
