I know laying -26 on the road is not smart but Pepperdine just doesn't have the talent to keep up with Gonzaga. Last year's results will indicate what I just said. The first meeting between the two was actually televised on ESPN2 and Gonzaga cruised easily 92-57. The spread was only -11.5. The second meeting was very similar to the first meeting and Gonzaga easily won again, 101-59. Gonzaga was at home that time so the spread was adjusted to -23 but obviously the Zags covered that with ease. I'm sure there are a lot of better games out there but this could get ugly real quick. If anything, I'd take a look at the first half spread because I am almost 100% sure there will be no ML for that. With Gonzaga finally getting back into the Top 25, I'm sure they'll want to solidify their spot as one of the top teams in the nation. I'm looking for the Zags to roll and Pepperdine to drown in their own wave tomorrow.

Soooo many better games tommorow....I agree Zaga could easily win by 40+ here on the road but I'd never bet it....Big rivalry from Pepperdine's glory days (if you could call it that) and for their students this is bigger than the superbowl.....Comment -
sounds good and i like st marys too setting up a sick ass matchup next gameComment -
I do agree that there are better games but I don't see how Pepperdine keeps this remotely close. Thanks for the concern AWJ but I might just play the 1H spread instead. I'll look into it more but again, the Zags have way too much talent for Pepperdine to keep it even 30 points.Comment
