But this game is on the A-10 Network based on Mercer's website.

This is a rematch of last year's game in Macon, GA in which Mason lost by a score of 69-60. The box score is here: http://www.mercerbears.com/boxscore.aspx?id=827&path=mbball

Mercer comes in with a 4-3 record after losing to Davidson on Tuesday night by a score of 73-59. The schedule is here: http://www.mercerbears.com/schedule.aspx?path=mbball

The stats are here: http://www.mercerbears.com/cumestats.aspx?path=mbball&year=2016

Based on last year's roster that played in last season's game, the following players are still on the team for this season that have started most or all of their 7 games this season. Stephon Jilks (5.4 RPG), Desmond Ringer and Demetre Rivers (11.0 PPG). Ria'n Holland is junior college transfer and is shooting 42.3% from 3 point land and is averaging 18.6 PPG.

Discuss.

So lets get a Masonhoops roster of those who will show up. Anyone ?? I am in - we can start at Brions Grill - get hammered - go rough up some Mercer fans in the parking lot then get rowdy in the Pat Dome.

I have seats but will most likely move to be near my boy and sit next to him and his AOII friends.

Optional bar fight after the game.

Thoughts?

Mason - 64
Mercer - 63

I will be there but I doubt I can fit the bar fight into my schedule.

Its about preparation and priorities. Come on man! Ok if no bar fight - crash and AOII party?

 

[Vurbel]

I think a chair shot WWE style is more than appropriate.

Wed can still hit up the AOII party though - right?

Pikapp must have come along way since I graduated lol. They were always in Sub 1 playing dungeons and dragons rather than partying

We were 0-8 on treys, had 19 turnovers and won. If we're talking about ugly games, that was one.

"Next A-10 opponent.

Young team that plays poorly at home. Bad 3 point shooting team. However, the Patriots have won four straight, including a win at UNI.

Best players are Jenkins and Moore. Stop them and the Bears likely will win.

KenPom has Mason favored by 2."
