Chris’ Pick

I’m leaning towards Wichita State here. I like this Richmond team a lot, especially offensively as they take care of the basketball and make a lot of good shots, but they struggled in their lone true road game this season and I just don’t have high hopes that suddenly it all changes here against a tough Wichita State team that ratchets up the defense at home. All in all, it should be a great game, but I’m taking the Shockers here.
