Liberty vs UMass Odds, Preview & Best Bet – 11/16/2024

The Liberty Flames are set to take on the UMass Minutemen on November 16, 2024, with the Flames being favored by 14.5 points according to DraftKings Sportsbook. The total for the game has been set at 52.0 points. Here, we break down this Liberty vs UMass game and give you our top prediction in the betting markets for this non-conference matchup.

Liberty Steps Outside Of Conference USA Play

The Liberty Flames snapped a two-game losing streak in their last game, when they beat Middle Tennessee by 20 points on the road last week. That win kept the Flames two losses behind Jacksonville State and Western Kentucky in the race for the CUSA championship game. Here, the Flames don’t have to worry about their conference record for a week, as they look to build some momentum for a very important game against Western Kentucky next week.

UMass Still Looking For First FBS Win

UMass has had a nightmare of a season, going 2-7 in their independent schedule going into this week. Both of the wins for the Minutemen this season have come against FCS schools (Central Connecticut and Wagner), while they are winless against FBS competition. That is not expected to change this week, as UMass’ defense has allowed 28 points or more in all but one of their games against FBS opponents in 2024.

Liberty vs UMass Betting Prediction

We will lay the points with the Liberty Flames in Saturday’s Liberty vs UMass matchup from Amherst. The Flames can’t afford to take it easy this week, even in a non-conference game, as they need to come into next week’s showdown with Western Kentucky as sharp as possible. Look for them to do just that as they should get the better of a hapless UMass squad on Saturday afternoon.
