Shane’s Free Pick

Dayton’s defense wasn’t great in the last game, but they are going to get back on the right track in this game. Overall Dayton is giving up only 60 points per game and they are going to lockdown in this game. Richmond is going to really struggle to score here, and this will be a comfortable victory for Dayton. Back Dayton to get the job done here against the spread.
