I'm on the over of 138 in this matchup @ Mercer for these reasons:

- Both teams trend over this season; Mercer 9-5 to the over, Chattanooga are 8-7 to the over.

- Chattanooga are 5-0 to the over in their last 5 away games.

- The home team will need to score points here, being that they are the poorer offense, scoring only 70 points per game on average, while Chattanooga are putting up 78 on average.

- Chattanooga shoot 31 three point shots per game, that's fourth most in the NCAA, and they are making them at a rate of 10 per game which is 9th in the nation.

- Mercer looking to get off the losing streak, and Chattanooga are looking to avoid a 2nd straight loss, so a back and forth affair should be in the works tonight.

- Chattanooga have 4 players averaging more than 10 points per night, 2 of them average 15+ so I lean towards them to win the game if I had to pick a side.

Official Play: Over 138.5
