They already played these guys twice and they are much improved at this point in the season. Might be some nice value in the +8 here.
Thoughts?

I took Mercer-8 here bud. Mercer won by 8 @home and 11@USCU more recently. They were up double digits for the majority of both games. USCU loses its games by an avg of 10 pts in the past 2 months. USCU played last night and aren't the greatest on little rest, whereas Mercer is no stranger to winning after 1 day's rest.

I watched Mercer live in February vs Northern Kentucky, and they looked like the worst team in the nation.
NKU beat em by about 20......and my buddy almost made Mercer's coach come into the stands.

SC Upstate is a dangerous team right now but I don't like them only getting 8 in what is basically a road game. Might make a 1H play on them but would like 5 not 4.5.... Figure they're more likely to cover the 1H than the game

Bettors are seeing too many dogs cover and win to lay points here

I have the feeling of too may point as well but i am staying away as well because if falls into system where i don't like the dog [Favorite who is the better defensive team, laying single digits & likes to slow it down against uptempo dog]
Look for Mercer to build a gap slowly to the cover
Cashed both my 1H bets. I think I'm done with this game though, don't feel confident with the 2H... Not that I was that confident with my 1H picks either haha

It's a straight up 3ball game though, I feel it could roll anyway.. That's why I'm taking my money and running
