On a prestige level, both schools are the flagship university of their respective public college systems, so they are similar in that regard. Every state is having some budget issues, so that should not be a deciding factor. UMass does have an especially well-regarded sports management program, a good business school, and it would be cheaper for you, so I would recommend UMass over UConn. UMass has a lot of new suite-style dorms in the sedate and scenic north/northeast sections of the campus where a lot of math and science majors reside. You might want to gravitate in that direction.
