ANDREW’S FREE PICK 

I’ll stick with Duquesne here. The Dukes have been struggling over their last six games on this 2-4 run and they could use a good showing in this one. Duquesne has still scored pretty well over those half-dozen outings with 72 or more points in four of them; the Dukes should notch a solid total against George Washington as well. The Colonials have given up 69 or more points in 11 straight games, so Duquesne will certainly have ample scoring opportunities in this matchup.
