Randy’s Free Pick

Neither team is playing good ball entering this contest, but you’d assume Rider will be able to turn things around at home, where it wins by an average of 10.3 points. The Manhattan Jaspers aren’t good across the board, especially on the road, where they lose by an average of 9 points. Rider is the better team. I’ll lay the points.
