The DePaul Blue Demons are off to a solid start, going 2-0 SU and 1-1 ATS this season. They’re coming off a dominant 92-59 win over Prairie View on Thursday, giving them ample time to rest and prepare for this matchup. Mercer, meanwhile, will be playing its season opener, so DePaul’s early rhythm could be an advantage. With the Blue Demons already warmed up, I like them to win and cover against a Bears team that may need a quarter or two to shake off the rust.
