Randy’s Free Pick
The Colgate Raiders are the more talented team and should have the advantage at home, but we’re getting a bunch of points with a Lehigh side that’s 13-8 ATS overall and 8-4 ATS on the road. Lehigh puts money in bettors pockets, and it loses by an average of just 4.8 points as an underdog. Give me the road dog.
