Mercer Bears vs NC Wilmington Seahawks Point Spread Picks

Two struggling teams meet here, but Mercer has played a tough schedule, including five road games in a row before coming home to face Georgia State on Dec. 7. Djordje Dimitrijevic and Victor Bafutto had 14 points apiece in that game, and the Bears shot only 35 percent. They're averaging better than that though at 43.1 percent on the season overall and 35.8 percent on 3-pointers. NC Wilmington has lost three in a row following a 76-57 defeat against Charlotte as a four-point underdog. The Seahawks are 1-9 ATS their last 10 games against teams with losing records and 2-5 ATS their last seven as favorites, including 1-4 ATS as home favorites. The Bears won last year's meeting, 77-73. Play Mercer.

It has not been a good start for either team so far this season. The Seahawks bring a 4-8 record with them as well as a four-game losing streak into this tilt with Mercer. They have yet to win on the road where they are 0-4 including a loss at Campbell. Mercer is 4-7 on the season but the breakdown for this young team shows something. The Bears are 0-7 when not playing at home and 4-0 on the season at home where they have outscored their four opponents by 133 total points. I think the bears get it done tonight at home, so play on Mercer.
