2 units on Game Total OVER 106 -110 (risk 2 to return 3.82)
Result:
LOSS

The total here opened at 105 and has risen quickly for good reason. Temple is simply a home squad and the total here is highly suprising considering the fact that this team at home put up 76 against Duquesne, 91 against Maryland, and 80+ against Xavier. Temple comes off a loss and at home they simply put up points. I expect Richmond to get beat fairly badly, possibly by 15-20 but laying that many points is tough on any team let alone Temple. However, I beleive Temple does score in the 70's possibly and Richmond to put up around 50 for a total of 120 rather than 107. Besides, the past 3 years the totals have been 112, 111 and 113. Given that Temple comes off a loss, they love to and can score points like they did against Duquesne, Maryland and Xavier and given that Richmond should put up around 50, I expect this to go well over. Two stars on the OVER here.
