Pick
I’m sticking with Loyola Marymount here. The Lions didn’t look great last time out against BYU, but this is still a Lions team that went on the road and beat Gonzaga not long ago. San Diego just can’t seem to find their footing right now and the Toreros have been playing matador defense and giving up points at an alarming rate. I think LMU gets it done on the road here, so give me the Lions laying the points.
