Look for Gonzaga to fail to cover this evening when the Bulldogs visit the Loyola Marymount Lions in WCC hoops action.
In this midnight special, our selection is on the Loyola-Marymount Lions plus the points over Gonzaga, as Loyola plays with revenge from a 97-62 loss at Gonzaga on January 6.
Loyola-Marymount (10-14, 2-6 WCC) has been 2-1 straight up since an 8-game losing skid put their season in the dumps, with that loss at Gonzaga (17-7, 7-1) part of the losing streak. Since their 4-game losing streak in late-December, early-January, Gonzaga has won eight of nine straight up and enter this one on a 5-game winning streak.
But .400+ college home dogs of more than four points are 99-54 against the spread with revenge from a same-season loss of 24+ points. Also, Gonzaga is 28-42 against the spread as a favorite, including 8-18 when laying double-digits. Take Loyola.
