PHILADELPHIA — An all-Temple Alumni on-air team will take the stage on Saturday, October 31, for Comcast SportsNet’s pre and postgame shows surrounding the Temple-Notre Dame football game from Lincoln Financial Field.

“Cherry and White” pre and postgame shows will utilize all-Temple University graduates including Danny Pommells, Ray Didinger, John Clark, Rob Ellis, Marc Zumoff and Rhea Hughes. Many of the show’s behind-the-scenes staff are also proud Temple grads.

Pommells will host “Cherry and White Pregame Live presented by Your Tri-State Toyota Dealers Association” at 6:30 p.m. on Comcast SportsNet. Fellow Owls Didinger and Brock will provide analysis, with Clark reporting from the field. Ellis, Zumoff and Hughes will also contribute to the program. “Cherry and White Postgame Live presented by Your Tri-State Toyota Dealers Association” will air immediately after the game on Comcast SportsNet.

Throughout the week leading up to the game, Comcast SportsNet will have Temple football coverage in all of the network’s news programs including “SportsNet Central” and “Breakfast on Broad.”

Temple (7-0) is looking to improve on what is already the best start in program history. The Owls are coming off a 24-14 come-from-behind victory on the road at East Carolina last Thursday, improving the team to 3-0 in conference play. Coming off a bye week, Notre Dame enters Saturday's game at 6-1, after defeating rival Southern Cal at home 41-31 on October 17.
