We have finally reached March Madness and it all gets started on Tuesday night with two play-in games. The second game to tip off is between the Belmont Bruins and the Temple Owls face off in Dayton Ohio.
This is the first meeting ever between the two teams.
Temple Owls
The Temple Owls were one of the teams that many felt was a surprise getting into the tournament but with a 23-9 record their season continues.
For the Owls they have been one of the hardest teams to figure out because it seems some games no matter the competition they just come out cold.
The Owls are a team that has a decent offense averaging 74.8 points per game while shooting 43.9 percent from the field.

On the defensive side of the ball they are giving up 71.2 points per game and if they want any chance in this game it’s going to be important the defense is good.
Belmont Bruins
On the other side of this matchup is the Belmont Bruins who were sweating on selection Sunday after they had a slip up against Murray State in the conference tournament but the committee still believed they did enough to earn an at-large bid.
The Bruins come into this game with a 26-5 record and most of the success has been because of the offense. On the season they are averaging 86.9 points per game while shooting almost 50 percent from the field.
