Pick
I’m sticking with Grand Canyon here. I found myself trying to make a case for UT-Arlington, but the problem is that the Mavericks just did not perform all that well down the stretch and they got walloped by Grand Canyon in the lone meeting this season. The Antelopes are just the far better team here and I think Grand Canyon wins this one by double-digits.
