Game Preview
This Wednesday we will enjoy one of the last college basketball matchups of the year when the Mercer Bears and the Samford Bulldogs visit the Pete Hanna Center. The Bears will be looking to pick up their third straight win while the Bulldogs will try to put an end to a seven game losing streak.
The Bears have had what could be called a decent season averaging 77 points per game and allowing 68. Their offense is led by Jalyn McCreary with 15.2 points per game. McCreary also has the support of teammates Kamar Robertson, James Glisson III, Luis Hurtado Jr. and Shawn Walker Jr. who also contribute double digits. All are good shooters in general with shooting from the line being their specialty.
On the other hand the Bulldogs are not having a good time this season suffering from a long losing streak. The offense is not bad averaging 79 points per game but the defense allows another 70 without a doubt defense is their main weakness.
The offense is led by Ques Glover with his 13 points per game and is supported by teammates Logan Dye and Jaden Campbell who contribute 10 points per game each.
The Bears come in with a 2-7 record in their last nine games while the Bulldogs have a 1-5 overall record but have gone 4-1 in their last five home games. The Bears are playing better overall so this might seem like an easy bet but the Bulldogs are good at home where they know how to limit their opponents to less than 40% shooting. This could be the occasion for the Bulldogs to put an end to their bad streak.
I’m going with the Bulldogs.
