Temple Owls vs Charlotte 49ers prediction
The Charlotte 49ers haven’t been kind to bettors this season, as they’ve covered just 3 of their last 10 games, and they’re 15-14 ATS on the season. However, Temple has had issues stringing together success and the Owls will play their third game in three days and their fourth game in five days. Not ideal. The Charlotte 49ers finished the season strong with wins in 6 of their last 10 games, and they’re sitting in 5 days of rest. Charlotte went into Temple and beat the 49ers about a month ago. Assuming the line isn’t anything crazy, I’ll side with Charlotte to make the AAC semifinal.
