Randy’s Free Pick
The Loyola-Maryland Greyhounds will have an edge being at home, but the Lehigh Mountain Hawks are clearly he better team on the season and should be the pick. I can’t go with a Loyola-Maryland team that’s losing on the year by an average of 4.4 points. Give me Lehigh in this near pick em spot.
