The Tulane Green Wave are 5-2 ATS in their last seven games as a road favorite. The Temple Owls are 10-3 ATS in their last 13 games as a home underdog. I'm not sure why the Temple Owls are underdogs at home, but it's something we se often and Temple usually covers these games without issues. In fact, Temple has won outright six of its last 10 home games when an underdog. Tulane has proven to be better at home than on the road, and Temple plays with an edge at home defensively. I'll gladly take the free field goal in a game the Owls should win.
