Eastern Washington Eagles vs. Loyola Marymount Lions Prediction

I’m on Eastern Washington and the points here. Loyola Marymount looked awesome in their debut, but 5 randoms playing a full 40 minutes could look good playing Lincoln University. Eastern Washington gets some brownie points from me for taking UCLA down into the mud and down to the wire and it wouldn’t surprise me if they did it again here. Give me the Eagles and the points here.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Eastern Washington +7.5
