There isn't a team in the country that has a player as important to his team than C.J. McCollum, just ask coach K. He saw this All-American single-handedly beat him in the NCAA Tournament. McCollum does it all, and against a very good Baylor team poured in 36 in the opener. He teams with Mackey McKnight to form a formiddable backcourt. The one thing Lehigh does is execute and get to the line, where they hit nearly 77% a year ago. Robert Morris is a good team and has a lot of parts back from a year ago, but have to be concerned about a 25 point loss to Rider in their opener. When you have teams on a comparable level, as we do here, you have to look at which team has the player that can take the game over. No one has a better one than Lehigh. The Mountain Hawks have been a cover machine at 14-2 ATS in their last 16, including 7-1 ATS outside conference play. Lehigh in this one.
