This game probably means nothing to most, but Tulane and Temple will battle with Templeâs bowl hopes on the mind. Tulane actually has had two weeks to prepare for this game which normally you would say who cares? However, they have a new field down they have a young energetic head coach in Curtis Johnson. This team went 7-6 last year in shocking fashion under Johnson and this has been a tough season, but destroying Templeâs bowling hopes would help. Both teams donât have much offense and this is a long trip for Temple and I just think a well-rested Tulane team will be playing this game like it is their Super Bowl. Tulane did not have the easiest schedule here at home facing Georgia Tech, Cincinnati, and Memphis along with Uconn who they beat. This is arguably their second easiest game all year at home and they should be poised to win it.
One team has half the penalties, the better QB rating in conference play and better pass defense in conference play and is converting at nearly 8% more on TDâs in the red zone while allowing 14% less while also converting on third downs at a higher rate. I bet you would think the answer to those questions was Baylor. Listen Baylor had a fabulous year but there just seems to be too much complaining about this team that scheduled Buffalo while TCU and Kansas State scheduled Minnesota and Auburn. Kansas State is not over a TD under dog against a Baylor team that now has a lot of pressure on them, because they need to win with glory here in a blow out. I donât see it happening against Bill Snyder and Kansas State. This is a well coached team that has played in a bunch of great games on the road and I expect the same here on Saturday.
Iâm going under here in the SEC Championship game. Some should expect a bit of a hangover for Alabama in this game along with a lot of motivation for Missouri because they are disrespected every single week. I actually could see Alabama winning this game 31-0. I donât think Missouri is good enough on offense to score on Alabama. Alabama in my opinion could get up by 2 TDâs and really take their foot off the gas and Missouriâs defense is arguably one of the best in the SEC especially with the front 7. However, Alabama has an advantage up the middle and I think thatâs where they will spend a lot of time. The ground game will keep the clock moving and unless Matty Mauk throws several pick sixes this game should be a low scoring Alabama win as they start to prepare for the college playoff.
