When you've got 65% of the covers clowns on Ga. St. I wouldn't worry about the line move unless it was more than a possession.

If Mercer controls their TO's they'll be okay.

Line movement means NOTHING towards these kids playing unless of course a player is hurt.
Tough "L" with Buffalo,  but Mercer is very strong at home 15-2. Georgia State had an OK year in the CAA @ home but on the road they fall of a bit.  
Mercer should win by 4-6 points at home!

just 4 pts scored over the first 6 minutes of the game

Over 5 minutes elapsed and Mercer hasn't scored...I don't like this already and this team is on their homecourt

No dougie. I just felt stupid if I didn't put a bet in at plus 3 when I already had them at plus 1.5...looking like the line movement could make a difference in the end as we got a barnburner going on. 5-4 with almost ten minutes expired....imagine being at that game...everybody prob laughing at the teams trying to outsuck eachother

Wouldn't limiting turnovers be important in any game regardless of tempo? Turnovers results in less possessions - its similar to rebounding. 

What's most interesting is that GA State is ranked #5 in the country at producing turnovers. In fact, 4 of the top 175 individual steals leaders are on GA State.

He may very well win this game, and I hope he does, but it's just another example of how stats/trends etc. can be used to make an argument for either side.

Finding the motivational/psychological edge is where money is made. It's harder to do, and the real opportunities are far fewer than a simple numbers game.
