San Francisco at Gonzaga: San Francisco to Cover +9.5

Gonzaga has dominated the Dons, winning the last 27 games going back to 2013. And they have never lost to them at home. However, this year could be different. The Bulldogs are having a down year for their standards, and San Francisco is striving, winning 8 of their last 10. 

Both offenses are in the top 10 in the country, but the difference here could be the Dons spreading the floor and making wide-open 3-point shots. When I look at the defensive side of the ball, San Francisco has a clear advantage. They ran 10th in points against, while Gonzaga ranks 98th. 

This should be a close back-and-forth game that should result in the Dons covering, of which the 9.5 is way too generous for how they have looked on the court. 

Result: San Francisco Cover by +4.5
