Virginia Tech at Temple

The Hokies went 19-15 a year ago and had some good moments, but with the best player gone from that time, it is going to take some time to find some answers and who the go-to guy will be. Early on, those struggles have been evident. Despite a 3-0 mark to start the season, the soft touches have given the 20-point favorite Hokies a hand full. Temple is a point away from starting 4-0 themselves, but when you consider their schedule has included Georgetown (the one point loss), and Siena, who is going to be a Tournament team, they appear to be way ahead of the Hokies right now. The Owls are always a play-on team because they bring it every night on the floor and that has led to a 38-18-1 ATS mark in their last 57. They are my choice in this one, Temple gets the money.
