The Temple men’s basketball team, which drew attention from betting regulators for unusual wagering activity ahead of its game on Thursday against Alabama-Birmingham, played at least three other games this season that also generated irregular betting patterns, according to an examination of the team’s season by The Athletic.
The betting patterns around the three additional games are not evidence of illicit behavior by anyone involved with the games, and no one has been publicly accused of wrongdoing. But they are the types of patterns that regulators look for when attempting to identify suspicious behavior.
The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board confirmed on Friday that a gambling monitoring service called U.S. Integrity had flagged Thursday’s game between Temple and UAB.
