PICK: I’m going to try Mercer I suppose. Probably not touching this one, though; it should be a pretty close matchup. Mercer shot 39.4 percent from the field with 32 rebounds and 19 assists in the loss to Florida State . The Bears didn’t play terribly, but they spent most of the game in catchup mode. Robert Morris should be a much more comparable opponent, and I like Mercer to keep the Colonials in check during a cover.
