PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Makenzie McGill II ran for 155 yards and scored a pair of touchdowns and North Texas ended a five-game losing streak beating Temple 24-17 on Saturday in a regular-season ender for both teams. The win helped North Texas (6-6, 3-5 American Athletic Conference) reach bowl eligibility. Prior to Saturday, the Mean Green hadn't won since Oct. 12 when they beat Florida Atlantic 41-37. The game's scoring outcome was settled by halftime. Chandler Morris threw a 14-yard touchdown to DT Sheffield on the game's opening drive for a 7-0 UNT lead. Kali Nguma added a 36-yard field 19 seconds later following a Temple turnover. The Owls (3-9, 2-6) got on the board with Maddux Trujillo's 44-yard field goal. McGill made it 17-3 with a 39-yard scoring run. Eight seconds into the second quarter, McGill ran 51 yards to the end zone for a 24-3 edge. Temple got two touchdowns before the half ended when Joquez Smith and Evan Simon each ran it in from the 1 to reduce the deficit to 24-17. North Texas clinched a bowl berth for the 15th time in program history and eighth time since 2013. It's the first time in the Eric Morris era North Texas has qualified for a bowl. Temple hasn't posted a winning season since 2019 when it went 8-5 and ended the season with a 55-13 loss to North Carolina in the Northrop Grumman Military Bowl. The Owls have ended the last four seasons with records of 3-9. ___ Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout the season. Sign up .

San Francisco wins 85-64 over Fordham
Pop superstar Katy Perry, who campaigned for Kamala Harris, is getting ridiculed on social media after she urged her followers to watch the movie Idiocracy — an apparent dig at President-elect Donald Trump and his supporters. Bypassing Letterboxd, Katy Perry posted her thoroughly unoriginal movie recommendation to X late Wednesday. Since then, she has received an outpouring of ridicule, with some noting that the last four years under Biden-Harris have been a more accurate reflection of the 2006 Mike Judge movie. “It covered 20202 to 2024 perfectly,” one commenter noted. “Don’t have to I lived through the Biden administration. By the way you know Mike Judge is conservative right?” another wrote. “You are a celebrity in the Idiocracy.. see how that works,” another commenter noted. “We’ve all already seen it and lived it the past 4 years,” another concluded. Idiocracy has become a cliched movie recommendation among leftists whenever a Republican, conservative, or non-establishment candidate wins an election. As Breitbart News reported , Katy Perry was one of several pop stars who participated in election-eve swing-state concerts for Kamala Harris, with the goal of encouraging low propensity voters to turn out for the Harris-Walz ticket. Other stars who performed were Lady Gaga and Jon Bon Jovi. Not only did the effort fail, with President-elect Donald Trump winning all seven battleground states, the concerts cost the Harris campaign a fortune, pushing the campaign into serious debt after blowing through $1 billion raised from donors.
