Three matchups to watch for each of the games on the Top 25 schedule.
Thursday, Sept. 1
Temple at No. 20 Arizona State
1. Arizona State WR Derek Hagan vs. Temple CB Ray Lamb
Hagan is a well-built receiver with good quickness and great hands. The senior returns after notching 83 catches for 1,248 yards and 10 touchdowns in 2004. Lamb is Temple's most experienced and reliable cover corner but he is no match for Hagan. Look for the Owls to roll coverage to Hagan's side in an effort to consistently double team QB Sam Keller's top target.
