Three years ago, current Temple head coach Rhule took over a 4-win Temple team. In the 3 years at the helm, Rhule has built the program from 2 to 6 to 10 wins this year, including a 9-3 ATS pointspread run and 7-1 SU conference record. Temple is a very good team with a tough defense that shut-down explosive Memphis for a 31-12 victory, then last week concluded their conference slate with a 27-3 blowout of UConn, in which they outrushed the Huskies 161-9 and held UConn to 138 total yards. Houston is coming off a HUGE win over Navy last week and I look for Temple to keep it close here. The difference here will be the defense as Temple is tough and Houston struggles. They allowed 30 or more points, 4 times, to Louisville, Cincinnati, Memphis and Navy (with the latter 3 of those in the last month). I'm back Temple plus the points here in the early kickoff on Saturday at Noon EST.
