Randy’s Free Pick
The San Francisco Dons should be favored at home, but they’re not playing great entering this contest, and that makes them tough to back in the big favorite role. The Pacific Tigers have been competitive all year, and they win on the road by an average of 4 points. Pacific can hang around. Give me the points.
