Who needs defense in a battle of teams in the northeast, UConn and UMass? In their last five games against FBS teams, the Minutemen have surrendered at least 34 points to their opponent. SportsLine lists UConn games at 6-5 to the over with three 0.5 points losses. But depending on closing lines, some books might have them at 9-2 to the over this year. UMass did score 21 on Georgia last week so I think they can at least match that this week. UConn 41, UMass 24.
