NCAA Football Betting: Temple Owls against Ohio Bobcats Lines

The Temple Owls and the Ohio Bobcats will fight today at Peden Stadium, in a college football betting game televised on ESPN2.

Believe it or not, this Wednesday tilt is another MAC Daddy by league standards as the winner settles into the top spot in the Eastern Division.

And, once again, we’ll lean to the hosts to bring home the bling.

Yes, we realize that Temple is looking to avenge last season’s 31-23 home loss to the Bobcats but the Owls haven’t won their fi nal road game of the season SU since they topped Rutgers, 20-17, back in 2002 – and haven’t covered one since 2005 (0-4-1 ATS).

They also have never delivered an ATS win (0-3-1) in this short series rivalry. Expect history to repeat itself tonight in Athens as Bobcats’ head man Frank Solich is to college football what Mariano Rivera is to baseball, and Kyra Sedgwick is to television.

The veteran head coach is a closer-like 20-12 SU and ATS in the regular season from Game Nine out, including 10-1 SU and 9-2 ATS after scoring 35 or more points.

We’ll ‘pimp’ out the homeboy Bobbies and grab the points as they improve to 7-1 ATS in their last eight weekday affairs. We suggest you do the same.

Oddsmakers currently have the Owls listed as 3½-point favorites against the Bobcats, and the game's total is sitting at 44½.
