LOSS

The Temple Owls have to be brimming with confidence after taking down a top Tennessee team with relative ease 88-72. Dionte Christmas certainly improved upon his potential All-America status by lighting up the Volunteers for 35 points. The Owls have the inside presence as well as Sergio Olmos dropped in 19 against the Vols. The Jayhawks ranking is a product of a good program getting much too much respect, and a loss to a then 2-6 UMass team in Kansas City certainly has to have their doubters on board for this one - as I am. This team is talented, but young and hasn't learned how to win yet. Sherron Collins is a big-time player, but the supporting cast isn't the same just yet as we have seen in previous additions of the Jayhawks. The Owls are feeling it, have a leader that can keep them close, or even pull the shocker, so I'm going with the points here as the Owls get the call.
