    I like that one. The writing is on the wall. Espn and other media outlets make it obvious.

    If BYU can beat Gonzaga I'm sure Duke can win.lol. I will not take any team that lost to BYU in basketball this year.

    Duke is playing their best ball of the season, I can't bet against coach k here. I will probably bet duke small.

    i know and being from the East coast I don't get to see Gonzaga play much.. thing is, I did take them
    in that 3 pt home loss to BYU thinking they would want to keep the home winning streak of 41 games
    alive, but the problem was that they already clinched the regular-season West Coast. Motivation was not there.
    Obviously they snapped right back and haven't lost since, defeating BYU hands-down 91-75 to win the Postseason
    West Coast along with the Regular. Since that they have topped ND State by 10, creamed Iowa 87-68 and
    breezed past UCLA 74-62. I had Duke over Utah. They won but Utah was never out of it. Utah is not anywhere
    near the same level offensively as the Zags. This Duke team is small and young. They won't be able to dominate
    the Zags on the boards. The style of ball Duke plays is a game the Zags excel at. Gonzaga is a mature team.
    Statisticaly they are very similar so it's going to be the team which shoots best and commits less turnovers
    that wins today. I'm giving an edge to the Zags based on their experience as a unit over the young Duke team.

    x factor what coach do you trust more? Also If utah would of played gonzaga the utes would of beat them. Also gonzaga has not beaten any team as good as duke. Duke has played hard teams all year. Even NC state was hard to play in the acc. They got far in the tournament. Duke has played way better competition all year than gonzaga. I just don't see gonzaga winning at all. They can't stop qinslow or cook and will not keep up with okafor at all. Not too mention having the best coach.

    anyone would have to admit the game could go either way, but at least i admit that. it's not a game to hammer unless one is ok with losing. the coach K angle only gets you so far because the team is so young. coach Few has been on the Zags coaching staff since 1989 and is building up a great track record of success himself.
    Gonzaga is a machine. They can execute plays with blindfolds on. They are unsimilar in style to most of the opponents Duke has played, so Duke is going to be very occupied trying to figure out what the hell the Zags are doing. we're talking about a team that passes fast and executes plays before the defense can react.
    Zags will put Duke on edge mentally.

    Gonzaga's best win is Iowa on the year. That's kind of alarming.

    You can only beat who you play, Going 36-2 is tough regardless.
    This line is close to perfect right now, if you are basing your bet on who Gonzaga has played so far this year you are analyzing the wrong things.

    With the exception of the St. Mary's game, Gonzaga has played everyone tough. I think Pangos is playing with a zest & vigor I have never seen from him & I tried to watch him & Xavier Rathan as much as I could this season.

    Really, the only play to look at for this game is the total.

    And the question to ask is... have the teams figured out how to shoot from the outside in a dome?

    I'm really nervous now. I see almost everyone is on gonzaga. Even Brandon Lang. Not a good sign. Probably gonna play this small. I was figuring this to be a contrarian play when I first posted this play right after duke beat Utah. I still think the zags win but I don't like seeing so much love for them.

    Yep, agreed. Just like everyone was on Utah. I see another Duke win here for an SBR burial. Duke for me.

    Like in horse racing, results not good when stepping up in class. Duke too deep with All-American squad,...coaching advantage as well. Gonzaga nice team/had a great year ends here.

    You wanted a contrarian play, be smart and take Duke.

    No way in hell they would be close to that record if they played dukes opponents.
