Temple?

No. The Owls’ last appearance in the poll was 2016.  The were ranked for one week (23rd).

Time for some clues.

1. They were a founding member of the Border Conference (1931).  They left that group in 1962 to try their hand at independence.  That lasted until 1969.  Since then, they have been a member of a number of conferences. 

2.  They were also a founding member of the Border Conference.  They left in 1951 to join the late, lamented Skyline Conference.

Urghhh - so thinking one of the big "border" schools and had to pull out my trusty Gulf of America map.  Arizona, ASU, Texas Tech, Houston, Baylor & UTEP I think all have been ranked in the late 20th &/or 21st century. Is it Texas San Antonio (are they even FBS?) or one of the two large New Mexico schools?
