UMass Lowell Blown Out in Last Game 

UMass Lowell was blown out in the last game against the Gonzaga Bulldogs. Umass Lowell scored only 54 points while the defense gave up 113 points, and that led to the defeat. Quinton Mincey had a strong game putting up 10 points, but it was the defense that just really let them down. UMass Lowell shot only 36 percent from the field and 18.8 percent from behind the three-point line. Two games ago against Saint Peter’s UMass Lowell scored 81 points, and they ended up winning by seven points. Mincey again was the difference in that game, putting up 27 points, one rebound, and one assist. 


Why UMass Lowell Will Cover Against Washington

  • UMass Lowell has won nine of its last 10 games following a road loss.
  • Washington has lost six of its last seven games following a home win.

What Should We Think About Washington? 

It’s hard at this point to really know what to think about this Washington squad because they have been inconsistent. Washington sits with a 2-1 record but the loss was a very bad one. Two games ago against Nevada, Washington scored only 53 points while the defense gave up 63 points on the way to the defeat. In the last game against Seattle Pacific, they bounced back with a win, but they still didn’t look all that impressive. At halftime, they were down by 11 points and it took a big second half to even pick u pa win. Great Oscobor had a strong game putting up 18 points, eight rebounds, and three assists. Washington will face Alcorn State, Colorado State, UCLA, and USC following this game.

Washington vs UMass-Lowell Prediction

Don’t let the record fool you. I don’t think the Washington squad is all that good. Two games ago, the Washington offense really struggled, and they are going to struggle to get the offense going here. UMass Lowell isn’t going to win this game, but they have shown they have a solid offense, and they are going to score enough to keep this game close. Back UMass Lowell against the spread here.
