    Gonzaga/BYU

    Nearly identical records. They've split their two games this year with neither team winning by more than three points. Don't we take the +3.5 with the Mormon kids?

    i tried comparing stats byu is a high scoring team but allows a lot of points. Gonzaga isn't as high scoring but has better defense. BYU is better at the 3 ball (well at least attempts it way more) and gonzaga is slightly better at field goals with about 2% higher overall average. Gonzaga though from ranking trends of different categories seems to be improving more then BYU. I then have to compare BPI rank of both the teams and gonzaga is ranked 26th in the country whereas BYU is 59th in the country. The strength of schedule of gonzaga is also tougher then that of BYU. That being said you need to add some sort of buff to overall stats of gonzaga since they have had a tougher schedule. Gonzaga should win this game but by a lot? Probably not but I'd roll the dice with zaga personally.

    lean gonzaga purely on the coaching side of things if the zags get down early though it could be a tough hill to climb

    Byu will need to hit 3s to cover, zags have one of the best 3pt defenses in the country

    I ended up betting the 1h zaga -2 @ -105. I hope they pull it off and roll my winnings into 2nd half depending on score assuming of course zaga wins the first half

    Think this was expected to be a high scoring affair...You got a team like Gonzaga who allows average teams to put up a bunch of points on them against a team like BYU who couldn't stop a 7th grade girls PE class

    Yeah I took the +4 here. Win or lose, this is the type of game I expected.
