Premium Pick

Temple's defense was great at getting pressure on opposing quarterbacks last year and returns a strong linebacking corps. But they went 3-9 because the offensive line was awful. Temple was 98th in the nation in total yards and averaged 3.1 yards per rush. The Owls got a win last week in the opener, 24-21, over Akron despite running for just 2.2 yards per carry. Temple is 28-10 UNDER the total after allowing 75 or fewer rushing yards. Rutgers was even worse offensively in 2022 ranking 128th with 13 points per game and 130th in yards per contest (254.5). QB Gavin Wimsatt (5 TDs, 7 INTs in 2022) is back but the defense is the strength of the team with seven starters returning. Rutgers is 45-27 UNDER the total in non-conference tilts. And college football teams like the Scarlet Knights with an experienced QB returning as a starter are 92-38 UNDER the total in the first two weeks of the season in non-conference action between two teams from division 1-A conferences.
