Georgia Tech and Temple are in talks to begin a home-and-home football series, according to Marc Narducci of Philly.com.

The Yellow Jackets would first travel to Philadelphia’s Lincoln Financial Field to play Temple first and then host the Owls in Atlanta, according to Narducci.

Philly.com reports nothing is official, but the deal is expected to happen.

Temple, a member of the Amerian Athletic Conference, announced a home-and-home series with the ACC’s Miami on Aug. 1 where Owls will travel to Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium in 2020 and host the Hurricanes in 2023.
