There’s no doubt Memphis is the more talented team in this one. The Owls are also can experienced team and this is the first time this season that they’re home underdogs. Temple is 6-0 SU at home and defend the perimeter rather well, holding opponents to 30.7%. The Tigers shoot a ton of threes, 6th best in the country currently, but have struggled with turnovers all season. Temple does a much better job protecting the ball and force tougher shots as compared to the Tigers.

Big number against Temple considering the Owls are 6-0 at home and they have one of the best offensive players in the country in Jamal Mashburn Jr. -- still don't know how he transferred to Temple and not a powerhouse, but I'm sure it had to do with money. This is one of the best offenses at Temple in a while as it already has reached triple digits twice this season, while the team's effective field goal percentage defense is second in the AAC. The program has won two of its past four vs. Top 25 foes.
