Randy’s Pick
The North Dakota State Bison have been battle tested after playing Creighton, but I do question their effort defensively overall. The UC Davis Aggies will have the best player on the floor in this matchup, and the offense is off to a respectable start. I also expect UC Davis to rebound after falling apart in the final minutes against Montana. That was a winnable game for the Aggies, and they fell apart late. I'll lay the small number with UC Davis.
