I'm sure the refs will be incredibly fair.

I am hoping my Owls beat the 25-point spread.

Although, to their credit, new coach KC Keeler has them playing well. Regular execution of plays that has been lacking for several years.

Disappointed - not by the result, which I expected. OU is 13th for a reason.

But I thought Temple's execution would be a little better.

I was figuring on, say, 35-14, or something similar.

This game was scheduled years ago, when Temple was coming off the Penn State win and the last-second loss to Notre Dame. When Matt Rhule left for the Carolina Panthers, a series of abysmal crony hirings set the program back light years.

They already have better discipline under first-year Coach Keeler, but I think they are a year away from being a year away.

Melly, it's perfectly understandable. Temple made the same mistake many teams do of looking past a lesser opponent to their next game.

Georgia Tech will make Temple wish they were back playing Oklahoma again. We have a lot of payback due and we'll make them regret foisting Geoff Collins on us.

Yeah, Temple was pretty much executed. :P

The line on the Temple-Georgia Tech game ranges from 23 1/2 to 24 1/2 at the various sportsbooks.
