Randy’s Free Pick
I don't want to back the NJIT Highlanders as much as the next guy, but there's no way I'm laying chalk with New Hampshire. The New Hampshire Wildcats not only lose on the season, but they're losing their last 5 games by an average of 9.4 points. Yes, home court maters, but still. It's NJIT and the points or pass.
