Temple is coming into this game with a 14-19 record this season and they are 5-13 in the conference. They have been awful in the conference for most of the season, but now they have been heating up in their recent games and have been playing much better. They have won their last 3 straight as well as 6 of their last 8 games and they are going to have a lot of confidence as they are coming off of a win against SMU in the last round. They are going up against a Charlotte team that is 19-11 this season and 13-5 in the conference. Charlotte has been a very good team in the conference all season but recently they have been the complete opposite as they were not playing very well to end the season. They have won their last 2 straight with weak wins against East Carolina and Rice in that span while they have actually lost 3 of their last 5 games as well. They do have the advantage of rest since this will be the 3rd straight game for Temple on B2B days, but they are riding their momentum here as they have been a completely different team over the last few weeks. They are going to get up for this game since they know winning this tournament is their only way into the NCAA Tournament, but they are also going to have some extra incentive here since they only played Charlotte once and lost by 3 points. Temple is going to get up for this game like they did in their last 2 and they will keep this game close if they do not pull off another upset win. Temple will cover the spread in this game.
