Temple vs UConn College Football Best Bet – 10/5/2024

The Temple Owls will play against the UConn Huskies on October 5, 2024, at 3:30 pm ET. According to DraftKings Sportsbook, the Owls are 17-point underdogs. Currently, 61% of spread bets support the Owls, while 39% favor the Huskies. The total of 50 points has seen 31% of bets on the under and 69% on the over. This Temple vs UConn matchup promises to be an intriguing one, as UConn is certainly not accustomed to being such a heavy favorite on the gridiron.

Temple Looks For Second Win Of 2024 Season

Things have gone poorly for the Temple Owls to start the 2024 college football season. The Owls are 1-4 on the year overall and 0-2 in the American Athletic Conference, with blowout losses to both Army and Navy under their belts. This week, Temple steps back out of AAC competition to take on FBS independent UConn. To have any chance to win this game, the Owls will need to figure out how to get some stops, after five straight games in which they have allowed 28 or more points.

UConn Favored Heavily at Home

UConn has a winning record this season, entering this Temple vs UConn matchup with a record of 3-2 on the year. The Huskies have won two games in a row to get back above the .500 mark, beating Florida Atlantic and Buffalo back-to-back. UConn's offense has been a big reason for their recent resurgence, as they have scored 47.5 points per game over their last two outings. Against a Temple team that has been dreadful on defense this season, the Huskies have a great chance to put up another big number on the scoreboard to improve to 4-2 and move to within a couple of wins of bowl eligibility.

Temple vs UConn Betting Prediction

Our best bet for Temple vs UConn is for the UConn Huskies to win and cover the spread at home over the Owls. UConn has a very favorable matchup in this game against the struggling Temple defense. We expect them to take full advantage of that to improve to 4-2 on the year and send Temple back to AAC conference play with a bad taste in their mouths.
