College Football Week 9 Schedule: Notre Dame-Temple is legitimately the best game on paper

ESPN's College GameDay is in Philadelphia this week for a Temple Owls home game.

Let that sink in for a moment.

Good? Good. Because Notre Dame-Temple is, on paper, the best game on the schedule this week in college football. In fact, it's the only game pitting two ranked teams against each other in week nine of the 2015 season. If that makes you cringe a bit, you're probably not alone. Still, we'll watch college football because we must.
