( La Salle : Temple ) - points per game 74:76 ; FG% 47:48 ; 3FG% 41:41 ; rebounds per game 34:35 ; turnovers per game 13:12.

La Salle lost 3 of last 4 games. Temple won 10 games in a row and most of those game were exactly the same. Temple played a couple of those games on road and they were more convincing on road than they were at home. These two teams already met a few weeks ago at Temple and Temple won 76:70. Temple dominated the paint, they had 35 rebounds while Le Salle had 26. Both teams shot below their average for 3pts. Temple made good choice fouling and that way limited La Salle to 56% from the FT line. I expect the same tonight, but more convincing win for Temple because I expect them to improve their TOs tonight (15:8 in the first game).
