  Draft Scout by Conference









  Alton McCaskill rushed for 129 yards and two touchdowns as No. 17 Houston methodically dispatched Temple 37-8 on Saturday to clinch a berth in the American Athletic Conference championship game. The Cougars (9-1, 7-0 American Athletic) have won nine straight games since an opening loss to Texas Tech to secure their first appearance in the conference championship game since winning the American Athletic in 2015. They will likely face No. 2 Cincinnati, which has to win one of its remaining two games - at home against SMU next Saturday and at East Carolina on Nov. 26, to join them in the Dec. 4 championship game. "Make no mistake, I'm proud of where we are at," Houston coach Dana Holgorsen said. "That's a goal before the season started. We wanted to be in the title game and we are. But it doesn't change what our job is next week (in the home finale against Memphis) or in two weeks (at UConn in the regular season finale)." Temple (3-7, 1-5) has lost five straight games, outscored 217-35 in that stretch. "Our defense, I thought played well enough to win," Temple coach Rod Carey said. "Our offense put us in some bad positions today." The Houston defense, which had been blistered for 79 points in back-to-back wins over SMU and USF, got interceptions from cornerback Marcus Jones, safety Gervarrius Owens, and Gleson Sprewell while holding the Temple offense to just 10 first downs and 48 total plays in the game. - Houston/AP College Football
