Result: Loss

*3 Star NCAA BB A10 Total* LaSalle and UMass are both teams that like to use full court pressure to speed up the tempo of the game. In fact, UMass averages more possessions per game than any other team in all of basketball. LaSalle doesn't have it in their DNA to try to slow the game down, so I think this one turns into a track meet. The over is 13-6 in LaSalle's last 19 following a straight up loss. The over is 7-1 in UMass' last 8 following a straight up loss. I projected this one at 154. Take the over.
