Randy’s Free Pick
The San Francisco Dons are the more talented team, and they’re at home, so I understand the line, but neither of these teams have played great over the last week. Pepperdine hasn’t played well on the road, where it’s also 1-9 ATS, but San Francisco is 2-5 ATS as a double-digit favorite. Better options out there, but give me the Waves and the points.
