Boston College vs Temple Prediction
Temple comes into this matchup looking for their third straight win to start the season and they have scored 90 and 83 points in their first two games. The Owls are shooting 52% from the field, while Boston College is shooting just 39% from the field. The Eagles have losses to Central Connecticut State and FAU so far this year, but they have played solid defense and they are averaging 46.3 rebounds per game. I don’t think BC is very good, obviously, but I also haven’t seen anything from Temple to suggest they will knock of an ACC team. Take BC and the points here.
