No. 21 Memphis at Temple – Sat, Nov 21, 12:00 PM ET

Point Spread: Memphis -1.5

Both teams are coming off ugly losses. The Memphis Tigers blew a big lead and saw the Houston Cougars knock them off, remain undefeated and take control of the American Athletic Conference. The Temple Owls started out 7-0 but have two losses in their last three games. The loss to Notre Dame is understandable, but the blowout loss to South Florida is tough to swallow, even if the Bulls have made drastic improvements with each passing week.

Memphis is eliminated from winning the division with Navy and Houston both undefeated but the Owls have a one game lead over South Florida and need to win out to take the division and play the winner of Navy-Houston for the conference championship. Because Temple is home and has more to play for at this point, I think the Owls rebound and get the close win over Paxton Lynch and Memphis.
