Key Storylines
- Georgia Tech’s Strong Start: The Yellow Jackets have opened the season with a 3-0 record, highlighted by a win over Clemson. Their offense has been potent, and their defense has shown marked improvement. They will be expected to get a fourth straight win here.
- Temple’s Inconsistent Performance: While Temple has secured victories against Howard and UMass, their loss to Oklahoma exposed vulnerabilities in their offensive line. All of Temple’s games have come against teams either way better or way worse than they are and that is the case again here.
Quarterback Play
- Georgia Tech: Haynes King leads Georgia Tech in rushing from the quarterback position. He is expected to play again this week and he will likely give the Temple defense headaches both with his arm and with his legs.
- Temple: Evan Simon has nine touchdown passes and no interceptions to start this season. But the Temple offense was humbled in their last time out against Oklahoma. This is a second straight difficult road game for Simon and the Owls and is another chance for him to prove himself against a quality opponent.
Betting Trends & H2H
- Georgia Tech: The Yellow Jackets are 3-0 against the spread this season and have covered in their last five home games.
- Temple: The Owls are 2-1 against the spread this season but struggled against Oklahoma last time out.
- Head-to-Head: Temple defeated Georgia Tech 24-2 in their only meeting back in 2019.

Final Thoughts
Georgia Tech enters this game as a significant favorite and their recent form suggests they will cover the spread. Temple looked good against UMass and Howard but they proved that they are not built to compete with power conference teams last week against Oklahoma. Georgia Tech has one of the most dangerous quarterbacks in college football and King should throw and run all over the overmatched Owls here. I will lay the points with Georgia Tech as they should remain unbeaten and ranked after this one.
