Temple vs Tulane Prediction

There's no reason to consider the Temple Owls, one of the worst teams in college football and haven't won on the road in more than three years. The Tulane Green Wave are rolling and 7-2 ATS on the season. However, this is a lot of touchdowns to pass up, and it's a look-ahead spot for Tulane with Navy on deck. Also, Tulane is 4-8 ATS in its last 12 games as a double-digit favorite. It's Temple or pass for me.
