Randy’s Free Pick
The Temple Owls aren’t playing well right now ad don’t have the offense to blow teams out, but Tulsa looks like a team that’s ready for the season to end. Tulsa is losing its last 5 games by an average of 29.2 points and loses on the road by an average of 20.4 points. It’s ugly. It’s Temple and the chalk or pass for me.
