Abilene Christian Wildcats vs. Cal Baptist Lancers Prediction
I’m on Cal Baptist here. There’s just so many things at play for Cal Baptist here, it’s hard to not back them in this spot, as the Lancers are still mathematically in the mix for the WAC title, but also, it’s senior night for Cal Baptist here as well. Abilene Christian has just stumbled in some recent spots and I think the Lancers take care of business at home. Give me Cal Baptist.
Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Cal Baptist -8.5
