George Mason comes into this game on a six game winning streak, while Saint Louis has alternated wins and losses over their last five games. George Mason has played strong defense in their last three games, allowing 57, 60, and 58 points. Saint Louis is scoring 75.3 points per game and they have a slight shooting percentage advantage over George Mason. I think we are going to see a very good game here, similar to their lone regular season matchup, but I have to go with George Mason to continue their strong play.
