The Bucknell Bison and the Merrimack Warriors have not fared well in the early going. Each team brought back just two starters from a year ago, and it has been tough finding the bottom of the net. Bucknell is scoring just 83ppg on poor shooting at just 41%. Merrimack has done somewhat better overall scoring 68ppg. Those numbers supply hidden value here as Merrimack scored 93 vs Worchester St., 96 against NC A&T, and 89 vs Felician. Otherwise they have produced just over 60ppg. Both these teams play at a slow pace and there is some line value on the total due to the numbers being skewed upwards because of horrible competition. Make the play on the UNDER.
