PICK: I’m sticking with South Carolina State in this one. Sure, the Bulldogs record this year is pretty abysmal, but they’ve been coming close in a lot of games. Saturday’s matchup saw South Carolina State finally get over the hump, and they came out of the gate with a solid first half. I like the Bulldogs to keep it going here and cover.
