Hey guys, anyone out there have any strong feelings either way in this game? I'm liking St. Joes.

Thanks for the input!

The Hawks dominated this series to the tune of 12-1 SU and 10-3 ATS. There is no reason to think the dominance won?t continue. They?ve won 5 of 6 on this floor and bring a lofty 9-3 ATS mark with 3 or more days of rest with conference tourney revenge into tonight?s fray.

Take St. Joes -1.5

i think this game will be extremely competitive. Having watched both of these teams numerous times this year and being familiar with sju (sju alum), i think the hawks win a tight one, lets say 71-66. Both teams have been playing well since conf play started. The fact that the game is played at the palestra (sju is playing all home games there due to construction taking place at the fieldhouse) gives temple an advantage as it will be mostly hawk fans but temple will probably have 20 % or so of the fans. I think Nivins will be the difference and he'll come through with 20+ pts and 10 + reb to lead them to victory.

Recap:

5 like St. Joe's
0 like Temple

Okay, I'll be the first to support the Owls. Temple is road-tested. The Owls have played 13 games on the road, and they have as many road wins (6) as St. Joe's has home wins (6). The Hawks are 9-1 in the conference, so they are due for a conference loss. Temple has won the last two games in the series. Not to mention, it's a pick 'em game on national TV, and 7 out of every 10 are on St. Joe's.

TEMPLE +1

Good luck!

Last year the teams played 3X. Each team won at home by a point and Temple won in the A10 tourney. Joes loses Calathes while Temple loses Tindale (advantage Temple). Owls Out gith 2nite!
