The Citadel at Mercer

January 7, 2026
img7:00 PM Eastern

The Citadel has muscle up front in 6-6 senior Braxton Williams (11.7 ppg) and 6-6 Christian Moore (10.8 ppg). They just lost six in a row against strong teams that all have 10 or more wins. That includes an 82-78 loss to a 10-6 Charleston squad as a +17.5 underdog, part of a 4-2 ATS run. Now they face a Mercer team that is 0-2 in the Southern Conference and has lost five of seven. Mercer went 14-19 last year, including 6-12 in conference play. These teams played a 62-52 game when they last met, so back the huge underdog. Play The Citadel.
