UMass vs. Temple sounds good on paper. Both teams are generally competitive with the Owls seeming to have teh higher ceiling this season.
The Minutemen are coming off a nice win and the Owls a loss, both against Big East foes. This used to be an Atlantic 10 battle but Temple moved on a while back.
Massachusetts Minutemen
UMass is coming of a huge comeback win. They were down 18 at the half at Providence and stormed back to win by a point.
Luwane Pipkins was no surprise as the leading scorer for the Minutemen. He had 26 in the recent victory and is averaging 20ppg on the season. He is hard to stay in front of and contributes more than 5 boards per game at under 6 feet.

Rashaan Holloway is a beat in the middle and super productive – 10ppg and 7rpg in just 18 minutes per game. He has to stay on the floor though. Fouls have been a challenge.
Jonathan Laurent has been a productive transfer on the win but he is questionable. They kind of need him as that is Temple’s strength.
Temple Owls
Losing at Villanova is nothing to be ashamed of, even if this year’s Wildcats are not as efficient as what we are used to seeing.
In the loss it was a case of the usual suspects. They got production where they expected it but 5 of the eight players that saw action scored 5 or less points – 2 zeros.

Temple is solid on the perimeter with Schizz Alston and Quentin Rose. Nate Pierre-Louis, a sophomore is coming on though. He makes them even deeper there.
This is a good spot for a bounce back by the Owls. They need to pick up the scoring though. This game should have more flow.

Free Massachusetts Minutemen vs. Temple Owls Sooners NCAAB Prediction:
No line yet but the Owls will be favoured at home. I wouldn’t expect by a ton though, maybe a couple of possessions.
UMass is not a bad team but they are far from the best in A10 this season. They do have some scorers though and could force Temple to do the same.
4* Free CBB Betting Pick: Mass ATS
This will all be about whether UMass can speed them up. That is hard to do on the road and Temple will respond at home
