AAC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME, Annapolis, MD:
Temple at Navy 11am/noon ABCABC
This is no gimme for the Middies. The Owls area dangerous team riding a six game winning streak. Interestingly, Temple has covered the spread in every game except the first one in which they were upset by Army. They are a -2½ dog today.
