Temple Can't Stem Duke's Rally In Walk-On's Independence Bowl

SHREVEPORT, La. -- Daniel Jones threw for 423 yards and five touchdowns, T.J. Rahming caught 12 passes for 240 yards and two scores, and Duke rallied past Temple 56-27 in the Independence Bowl on Thursday.

Duke (8-5) snapped a two-game losing streak by putting on an offensive show. The Blue Devils scored touchdowns on seven straight drives, flipping a 27-14 deficit in the second quarter to a 56-27 lead by midway through the fourth.

Jones' five touchdown passes and 423 yards passing both set Independence Bowl records. So did Duke's 56 points.

Coach David Cutcliffe won his fourth Independence Bowl.
