ANDREW’S FREE PICK 

I’ll probably stick with Bethune-Cookman. Granted, there’s not a lot of intrigue involved in a game between teams with a combined 15 wins, but it should be a competitive matchup. The Wildcats have scored 66 or more points in seven of their last eight games (64 in the outlier) and should be able to set the pace in this one. As for Alabama A&M, they’ll be able to hang around if they can keep the score low. That said if Bethune-Cookman gets into a good offensive rhythm I don’t think the Bulldogs will keep up. 

Andrew's Free Pick: Bethune-Cookman Wildcats -1
