Youngstown State (4-0) is off to a great start but is a big dog at Massachusetts. This is a senior laden squad off a winning season and led by Kendrick Perry and his 21 ppg. They face a UMass team that is 2-0 but in a sandwich spot, off of a pair of big victories with a game against Nebraska on deck. They defeated state rival Boston College, 86-73, on Nov. 10 and LSU, 92-90, in a thriller. This is a flat spot and why would they get fired up to play Youngstown? The Minutemen are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 non-conference games and 1-4 ATS in their last five home games against a team with a winning road record. In addition, UMass is 1-5 ATS in their last six games against a team with a winning percentage above .600. Play Youngstown State.
