Yes Temple has been hot, but no I do not see them winning, maybe cover 6', but Mich.St. appears to be a little better team and should win, just my thoughts. gl today, and Stanford -3'.

Problem Temple will have with Mich St is the same problem Gonzaga faced. Dickau was the key for Gonzaga, but Mich St can rotate tall, long, athletic defenders (Bell, Thomas, Richardson) on the other teams best guard. And what we saw last night was Dickau go 6-17 and was a non-factor the final 15 minutes of the game. They will do the same to Greer, and I don't think he'll have the same success he has had the previous three tournament games. Temple faced smaller, slower guards the past two games versus Florida and Penn St...Greer and Wadley ate them for lunch. I don't see that happening in this game.

Spartans also have the size underneath to negate Lyde, and with their frontcourt depth, Izzo might go after Lyde early and try and get him in foul trouble.
