North Texas vs. Temple Prediction, Odds, Picks - November 28, 2025

Colin Chase - Touchdowns in consecutive games Chase recorded five receptions (on six targets) for 59 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 37-13 loss against Tulane.

Impact Chase was Temple's leading receiver this week, scoring his fourth touchdown of the season and second in as many weeks. The junior has come on lately, tallying at least five receptions in the last three games, a mark he only hit once in the first eight games.

NOVEMBER 24, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Jay Ducker - Quiet in loss to Tulane Ducker had seven rushes for 17 yards and gathered in four of five targets for 21 yards during Saturday's 37-13 loss to Tulane.

Impact Ducker struggled this week, recording his lowest rushing output of the season while tying a season-low seven carries. The Sam Houston State transfer did have four receptions, which tied a season-high, as he has had a reception in every game but one this year.

NOVEMBER 24, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Evan Simon - Two touchdown passes in loss Simon was 21 of 32 passing for 168 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 37-13 defeat to Tulane. He also had seven rushes for -15 yards.

Impact Simon threw multiple touchdown passes for the first time in three weeks Saturday, but his -15 rushing yards on four sacks didn't help the Owls. The senior has struggled to put up big numbers in the passing game as of late, failing to reach 200 yards in four of the last five games.

NOVEMBER 24, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Ian Stewart - Returns against Tulane Stewart (undisclosed) logged zero receptions (on one target) for zero yards during Saturday's 37-13 defeat against Tulane.

Impact Stewart has been struggling through nagging injuries in recent weeks, missing three of the team's last six contests.

His final chance of the regular season will come against North Texas on Friday.

NOVEMBER 23, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Tyler Stewart - Logs 28 kick-return yards Stewart (undisclosed) logged 28 kick-return yards during Saturday's 37-13 loss to Tulane.

NOVEMBER 22, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Ian Stewart - Questionable vs. Tulane Stewart (undisclosed) is questionable for Saturday's game against Tulane.

Impact Stewart will head into the afternoon matchup with a questionable status after missing last week's game versus Army. The 6-foot-3 wide receiver's true status should be revealed once the game starts, if not prior to kickoff.
