(NCAAB) Siena vs. UMass,
Point Spread: -19.50 | -110.00 UMass (Home)
Result: Loss
This UMass team only had 1 returning starter from last season, but they took an August trip to Puerto Rico which helped them gel. They added a transfer and a high-rated freshman. All 11 players have started all 11 games, and they are 9 deep which they need with the tempo they play.
The Minutemen are 8-3 ATS this season but as a favorite of -6 or more they are 6-0 ATS covering by over 10 PPG while shooting 55%! in those games. Siena is BAD! They have one win since their opener and 2-8 ATS and in those ATS losses.
While some teams play one game in a 10 day span during the holidays UMass played last Thursday, Friday and Sunday in Honolulu and will be ready to run and gun and get a blowout win here on Saturday afternoon.
