Shane’s Free Pick
The Liberty’s offense has been good this season and the big issue for this Storm team all season has been the defense. The Liberty are going to get another big game from Stewart, and this is going to be a blowout victory. The offense won’t step up around Lloyd and that will be the difference as the Liberty are going to get the job done. Back the Liberty to win this game and cover the spread.
