Military Bowl Presented by Northrop Grumman
No. 24 Temple (10-3, 7-1 AAC) vs. Wake Forest (6-6, 3-5 ACC)
Dec. 27 – 3:30 p.m., ESPN
Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium, Annapolis, Md.

Average Line: Temple, -13

This was a pretty easy emotional decision to make. Wake Forest is going to lose and no, it’s not because Temple “stole” their playbook. The Owls have been on a roll to end the season, whereas Wake Forest couldn’t even beat Boston College in the last week.

I think the biggest difference between these two teams are on offense. Wake Forest is second to last in the ACC in total offense, but Temple is putting up at least 32 points per game this year.

Unless Wake Forest recruited more talented offensive players over the winter break, then there’s no way their offense gets going against Temple.
