Looks like the figures are in. Las Vegas has installed the Owl as a 5 point fav over the Bobcat and the infamous weekend party in Athens required 45 ambulances, 50 arrests and featured a 100 man Battle Royale. Impressive Christians, impressive.

Thought Id take a look at a few categories and provide my much awaited Halloween impressions

Quarterback
Both team's qb's have seen sporadic success but given Tyler Tettleton's stats against common opponents and Chester Stewart's benefit of 5 years of academic studies at Russell Conwell's acres of diamonds campus, the Owl gets the nod.
Advantage: "]["emple

Running Back
One might think any running back from Erie at this time of year might have some cosmic, seasonal forces but frankly stein, this comes down to two names and a conjunction. Bernard Pierce and Matt Brown
Advantage: "]["emple

Receivers
Ive respected the collegiate career of LaVon Brazil but at 6'5 and 6"6", the combination of Miller and Streater provide much to ask from a tattered and maligned secondary. Love those adjectives.
Advantage: "]["emple

DLine
Ohio is without 2 key DT's while the Owls have placed 5 employees into the sunday men's league over the last 3 seasons. There's another one to follow in Adrian Robinson and he might not be the best of the family to don the cherry and white
Advantage: "]['emple

Linebackers
Will Keller stay healthy? Even if he's eating his Wheateies, he's not really a Tahir Whitehead is he?
Advantage: "]["emple

Secondary
Ive grown tired examining the Bobcat roster. C Anderson v Ohio 23-39  343 //C Anderson v Temple 9-26  84
Advantage: "]["emple

Home Field
Ohio averages about 19,400 and might sell a hundred more tickets thanks to me stoking this rivalry.
I will be in attendance
Advantage: Push

Officials
The MAC stripes have a way of negating big Temple gains with ghost flags and phantom calls. Dont expect it to be any different Wednesday
Advantage: Ohio

Synopsis:
"]["emple gets 220+ on the ground and demonstrates a competent pass attack

"]["emple 23
Ohio  17

You can always count on MH55 to present both sides of the argument in a fair and even-handed manner. Thank you Sir!

SARCASM!!!!!!!!!

Right on clock, the temples idiot (that's what it says on his degree, apparently) checks in.

Thank you, boa-man, for that genuine big-city, no-attendance gibberish.

]Enough /Already with the brackets and quotes.

ah, yea:   http://spotcrime.com/pa/philadelphia


And I'm originally from Philly!

MH55, Solich has your number, and that's too bad for Temple.  This past Saturday I was in Huntington and watched the Herd beat up on UAB to the tune of 59-14.  I'm not sure if Frank will call off the dogs in the fourth quarter the way Doc did or not.  You better hope so. 

Post of the Year nominee.

You can ignore the astute analysis but you cant ignore the big things "]["emple has in store for U. OU

Here's the classic number for you, assured to be true in advance:  Win or lose we'll still be OHIO UNIVERSITY in all its glory in Athens, Ohio while the temples boa idiot will still be one persistent moron.

Aww Munny thats not nice. Always so cranky, dem chemtrails must have made you flacid

Although Tettleton had a great game I'd give he advantage to Coyer -- he had 300+ total yards and ran through our  D like it was swiss cheese. Averaging 11 yards per carry is impressive.

See, I think on the read option Ohio was bound and determined that Pierce and Brown weren't going to beat them. If Ohio was going to lose, they were going to make sure the guy who started the season as the third string quarterback was going to be the guy beating them.

And he damn near did it.

Also, a few Ohio secondary players who shall remain nameless looked like cardboard cutouts while making open field tackles. I would not want to be a couple of those DBs when they are in film sessions.
