La Salle at Temple

The Temple Owls sure have the pedigree in college basketball when compared to La Salle over the last decade or so. The oddsmakers are making a bold statement that at least for this year that has changed with this game going off as a virtual pick-'em game at Temple. I tend to agree with them on that assessment. La Salle is a very good team at 18-6 and is getting better, having won six of their last seven. The only setback was by a single point. Galloway, and Duren are a tough 1-2 punch for the Explorers, as both connect on over 40% from deep. Temple has found the going tough after a 10-2 start, having gone just 7-6 in their last 13 games. The problem is that three of their four top scorers shoot 43% or less. Against a good shooting La Salle team that will do them in the end. Take La Salle.
