Vegas is usually on the money so I hope we win at their house.
Gonna be a really tough game. They are physical and their defense is damn good
That's gotta be a joke?!
Temple has beat FCS Bucknell, Maryland (slightly impressive), GA Tech (1-4 including a loss to Citadel) and ECU who might be their toughest win and they only beat them 27-17. Not sure how that shows any toughness in schedule. They lost to 2-4 Buffalo 38-22.
While their defense is pretty good, ranked 20th, it's not like they've been tested: Maryland 41st, GA Tech 124, Buffalo 91st, ECU 97th.
Good info. I was just looking at this...
Temple’s Buffalo loss was due to turnovers...3 interceptions and 2 fumbles (1 lost). It wasn’t even close in the beginning of the 4th quarter....31-7. It was a meltdown and Buffalo ran over them, but some points were due to pick 6 and short field.
The Maryland win likely won’t hold up as quality as they were stupidly ranked bc they had beaten stupidly ranked Syracuse team by wild margins.
Here’s the craziness of College Football scores:
Maryland over Syracuse 63-20
Temple over Maryland 20-17
Buffalo over Temple 38-22
Syracuse over Liberty. 24-0
Liberty over Buffalo. 35-17
The more I dig, I think all of these teams are just bad.
Memphis is better than this but the road is dangerous.
I’d say there’s a 60% chance Memphis wins by 6, but maybe a 20% chance we lose. Kinda like the election.
