College Football Returns to Philly
August means one thing for sports fans—football is back. While the pros make headlines, it is the college game that kicks things off first. And this year, excitement is high across the board. Whether you’re repping Temple, Penn State, or your out-of-state alma mater, you are going to want a spot to watch it all go down.
At 7C Lounge, we’re all about turning college game day into an event. With screens in every direction, ice-cold drinks, and a room full of fans who know how to bring the energy, we’re your home base this football season.
Temple Leads the Local Buzz
Let’s start with the hometown squad. Temple Owls football returns with a fresh schedule and a new chance to climb the American Athletic Conference ladder. The official Temple Football schedule lists the season opener on August 30, with a home game at Lincoln Financial Field.
Want to join a watch party? Temple’s alumni office hosts official game-watch events for fans who want to rep the Owls with fellow grads, and we’re here to keep the celebration going long after kickoff.
At 7C Lounge, we’ll be tuned in for every Owls matchup and highlighting major games on Saturdays with drink specials and curated playlists. If you’re rolling with a group of alumni, hit our Book a Party page now to reserve your space.
Where Philly Watches College Football
Philly may be an NFL town, but on Saturdays, college pride runs deep. From Big Ten to SEC to Pac-12 matchups, fans across the city pack into their favorite bars to cheer, boo, and argue over every call. Not sure where to go? Reddit’s Philadelphia sports bar threads always shout out the city’s best viewing spots—and 7C Lounge consistently earns high marks for comfort, energy, and quality cocktails.
We know what college football fans need: reliable screens, affordable drinks, and bartenders who don’t mind a little yelling during fourth and short. We’re ready.
