The Merrimack College Warriors and San Francisco Dons face off on Wednesday in a college basketball showdown at War Memorial Gym. This is the first meeting played between the two teams in recent years. 

Merrimack comes into this game with a 1-9 record and they have gone 1-8 against the spread. In the last game against Vermont, Merrimack scored only 43 points, and that led to the 23 point defeat. Jordan Minor did have a huge game finishing with 25 points and 10 rebounds. The Warriors are averaging 54.8 points while their defense is giving up 71.7 points per game. The offense is ranked 361st in the league and they need to find a way to get the offense going here. Forward Ziggy Reid is having a strong season averaging 12.4 points while shooting 60.8 percent from the field. 

San Francisco comes into this game with a 7-2 record, but they have gone 3-5 against the spread. Two games ago against Little Rock, San Francisco scored 90 points, and won in blowout fashion. In the last game against Utah Valley the offense scored 64 points, and the defense gave up 82 points. San Francisco is averaging 75.7 points while their defense is giving up 69.7 points per game. In the last game the defense wasn’t good enough, and they need the defense to be a whole lot better here. Khalil Shabazz is averaging 14.4 points while shooting 42.3 percent from the field. 

Merrimack is 0-4 against the spread in their last four games. The under is 8-0 in the Warriors last eight games. The under is 4-1 in Warriors last 5 games after scoring less than 50 points in their previous game. San Francisco is 5-1 against the spread in their last 6 games following an against the spread loss.

This Merrimack offense is awful and they are going to struggle to score here. They are averaging only 54.8 points per game and they will finish even under that here. The lack of scoring by Merrimack will be the difference as San Francisco is going to get the job done. Back the Dons against the spread.
