Temple vs.Ohio

And i agree with all of you that say Temple looks like a gift. Line should be around 7 IMO. That means either it is ...

A. Gift
B. Trap

I just went with Solich, at home, in the Home Dog role. And i obviously think the line tells me Ohio too. Based on my midweek record, all you Temple backers are most likely safe!

Didn't they only have 3 like opponents?

I hear what you are saying but wouldn't you agree that teams do not play the same to start a season as they do to finish it? Some get better based on play and injuries, some get worse.

They both recently played Buffalo. Temple beat them at Home 34-0. Ohio lost to them on the road 38-37. I think you would agree that playing them at Home is much easier than playing them on the road. Buffalo just missed an extra point at home last weekend that would have tied the game with a very good N. Illinois team and sent that game to overtime. Tougher team in Buffalo than on the road (IMO).

They both played Akron on the road. Temple beat them early in the season by 38 and Ohio beat them recently by 17. If you look at the Akron season, it is horrible but they have played better in the 2nd half of the season and when Ohio played them.

The one that really stands out is Ball St. Temple pounded them on the road and Ohio lost to them at Home in the same time period. No excuse for that one except to say sometimes teams just match up differently with other teams.

IMO Kaz, Every MAC game is hard to cap but that's just me.

No doubt last night was a trap and maybe this one is too. Temple seems obvious, but after reading your info, maybe not so much. The line coming down really does make it look like a trap play on Temple. Looks too easy to the public...

No bet for me as last night was no bet. I keep getting beat on these weekday games, so I'm laying off. Might make a halftime play. Thanks for the info...

In my opinion if temple wins the game will go under.temple has a very good defense as with all 7 games going under .i think the under is the play especially with the game last night scoring so much.

I let the board scare me off a big play on Kansas St two weeks ago when they were favored by 12 and won by 38. I believe in my capping abilities and the BG loss does sting as they rebound tonight. Wayne mentions how good the Ohio defense is against the run but Temple is even better. Look at common opponents, no comparison Temple held the teams for half the run yardage.

Wayne = smart!

Good job... I am amazed but you nailed several points!

Good job..

I wish we had more discussion on games like this thread has around here. I can't hardly get anyone to chime in about anything anymore

[bryce]

Yep kb you are right!

This was good discussion here on one measly game as such!

Hope it continues! Damn with bama and lsu on tap we should of been talking about it since Monday to say the least
