Temple at Eastern Michigan

There appears to be one given each year in the MAC. That given is that Temple won't win the conference championship, and neither will Eastern Michigan. It is hard to imagine the Owls in this spot as nearly a TD favorite on the road. The fact is that this Owls team is 6-32 ATS off a straight-up win - hardly the kind of team you want your money on. They have beaten Eastern Michigan two straight, but have failed to cover in either one and now are a road favorite. The last 10 times the Owls have taken on this role, they have failed to get the money in seven of them. The Eagles have chased an ATS loss with an ATS win in four of their last five and the Eagles are also flying high in October at 13-5 ATS. So once they get their wings in September, they have become a bad team that delivers the cash. Temple beat up on Buffalo last game 37-13. This team hasn't had many big wins over the past fifteen years, notching just 12 wins by a margin of 17+ points. In the next game after the big wins, they have gone just 2-10 ATS. It looks ugly from both sides, but getting points has been pretty for Eastern Michigan, while the Owls don't seem to take to layin’ them. Eastern Michigan gets the call here.
