Randy’s Free Pick

The Jackson State Tigers are a bad team that I’m not excited to back, and they’re on the road, where they lose by an average of 11.6 points. The Jackson State Tigers are playing well, they’re covering numbers, and they’re at home where they win by an average of 24.5 points and shoot 52.7 percent from the field. I’ll lay the chalk.
