Randy’s Free Pick

The St. Mary’s Gaels are obviously the better team and have the ability to blow the doors off, but let’s not act like Loyola Marymount is a pushover. Loyola Marymount has been solid all year, gets after it at home and loses in the underdog role by an average of 2.5 points. This should be a packed house for the Lions. Give me Loyola Marymount and the points.
