Trends
Dayton is 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games following an ATS win and 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games against a team with a winning record while the under is 4-0 in their last 4 games overall. UMass is 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games overall and 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games following an ATs win while the over is 14-3 in their last 17 games following a win by 20+ points.
Pick
I’m leaning towards the under. Dayton has been picking up wins a lot more frequently than UMASS, but they haven’t necessarily been doing it by lighting the scoreboard ablaze and I don’t think this game is going to be any different. I feel like this game just sets up for the first to 65 to win this game, so give me the under in this one.
