Mercer vs Wofford Prediction

The Wofford Terriers are going to get the benefit of the doubt at home where they’re 5-1 SU, but I’m leaning toward Mercer and the points. The Mercer Bears have won three road games this season, and they have the offensive horses to give Wofford a scare. Mercer is 9-6-1 ATS on the season and is coming off a last-second loss to Samford, which can be taken as a confidence booster. Mercer wasn’t given much of a chance in that game. Wofford should be favored, but this line is a bit steep. This feels like a high-scoring scoring back and forth contest that could be decided in the final five minutes. I’ll grab the points with Mercer on the road.
