Randy’s Pick

The Xavier Musketeers are the better, more talented team, obviously, and a blowout win wouldn’t be surprising. However, Oakland has held its own against decent competition up to this point and is good enough defensively to hang around. Also, Oakland is 6-0 ATS on the season, and that should always be attractive to a bettor. Oakland is a cash cow at the moment. Give me the points.
