ANDREW’S FREE PICK 

I’m going to stick with Grambling State. The Tigers have found their rhythm over this seven-game win streak, scoring 65 or more points in each of those outings. Grambling State has been above 69 points just once (73) during that stretch however, so they’re getting it done with defense. One of those wins came back on February 6 at Elmore Gymnasium against Alabama A&M. The Tigers hit a 31-18 halftime lead in that one, but had to scramble a bit for the victory 66-60. Back at home I think Grambling State will have a more comfortable time in the rematch.
