Penn State’s men’s basketball program is on the road for the first time this season on Monday night. Penn State is looking to go 2-0 to start the Micah Shrewsberry era with a win against former Atlantic-10 foe Massachusetts, and the odds are leaning in Penn State’s favor on the road.
According to Tipico, Penn State is a 4.5-point favorite on the road against UMass. Penn State opened the 2021-22 season with a 75-59 victory over Youngstown State at home, but they failed to cover with a late Youngstown State score to cover a 17.5-point spread. It can be difficult to base any early betting opinions off just one game in a college basketball season, but the Nittany Lions do look like a team to have some confidence in with this particular matchup.
