Randy’s Free Pick

The Denver Pioneers are the better team and should be favored, especially at home, but they’re also a team that doesn’t cover numbers. Denver is 4-7 ATS at home and wins at home by an average of just 3.5 points. Denver is losing its last 5 games by an average of 5.8 points. It’s the road dog or pass for me.
