After opening the '06 campaign 0-3 SUATS, the lowly Owls have won the money in each of their last two contests

Meanwhile, the Tigers are just 1-2 ATS in games away form Death Valley this season. With Clemson looking dead ahead to a revenger with Georgia Tech next week, look for them to play it close to the vest. They did identically the same in last year's 37-7 win over the Owls, a game in which they had Georgia Tech revenge awaiting on deck.

It's deja vu all over again. Take the points.

There is no way I could take Temple in this game.

While it's true this is technically an away game, it's in Charlotte, NC. That's practically in the back yard of the Tigers. The crowd will certainly be pro-Tigers. So, I think you can pretty much throw out that stat.

This Clemson team is MUCH better than last years squad. Just look at what they've done to other overmatched squads they've played this year:

Florida Atlantic 54-6
North Carolina 52-7
La. Tech 51-0

I have a slight lean towards Clemson in this one, but honestly, I think it's more of a no play for me.

I got a question this say clemson is up 35 to 3 half time whats the chance fotr them to pull out there starters and just run the clock down.

My first bet would be take the points, but then I go clemcons going to desroy them 49 to 0. Although that still is 7 touch downs take it temple has none.

If I was ever going to lay 44 points, this would be the game to do it.

No doubt, Temple is the worst team in the country.

[pags11]

all I can say is that you have a lot of balls betting Temple...

[hawk 5]

Took Clemson and the over. Bet it small. I think even if you put the 2nd team in Clemson will still score. 61-7

[hawk 5]

Don't like to brag but.....63-9

[Illusion]

I am shocked they scored 9 points. Temple does not belong in division one.

I'm just happy they didn't score 20

Well that system is a very profitable one, so I can see why you did. it.
