Saturday Night Special: South Carolina and Temple to Pierce Opponents



The Temple Owls (22-5, 11-2 A10) hope to maintain their mastery over Saint Joseph’s (18-11, 8-6 A10) with an eleventh victory in a row over the Hawks. After a 52-49 home loss to Richmond in their last game, the St. Joe’s look in no position to break the streak against an Owls squad who have won 11 straight and not lost in Hagan Arena since 2001.

Pick: Temple -2.5




The South Carolina Gamecocks (10-17, 2-11 SEC) look to spur conference foes the Tennessee Volunteers (15-13, 7-6 SEC) in Columbia on Saturday night. Defense will be key for Darrin Horn’s squad. Under his four-year tenure, the Gamecocks are 56-17 when holding their opponents under 45% shooting from the field. The Volunteers shoot a paltry 39.1% on the road this season.

Pick: South Carolina +3

Added selections:

Depaul, -1.5 
Tulane, +3
Bowling Green, -1
East Carolina, -1.5
Syracuse, -4.5
San Francisco, +4
