ANDREW’S FREE PICK 

I’ll stay with the Titans in this one. CSU Fullerton has now won four of their last five games after taking out a tricky Hawaii team on Sunday. The Titans haven’t cracked 67 points in seven straight games, but they’re generating wins with tempo and defense. As for UCSD, they haven’t seen 70 points in five straight games themselves. This one will probably be on the lower side total-wise, and I like the Titans to power out the road cover.
