I like avoiding such games. It's sometimes good in these games to just look for games with huge spreads and look for dogs that can cover such spreads. For most huge favorites, the emphasis is only on winning. The winning margin doesn't matter.

the difference in this game is mental. florida state is extremely athletic and if this were a combine they would blow gonzaga off the court (and most teams in the country with their physical skills), ah but it isn't. florida is as dumb as a box of rocks and that is why they will lose. same story as the football team. good luck!

Gongaza should play with these guys. Will take 1 1/2.

Gonzaga better in FG, in 3P ,in FT, the same in rebounds and they shoot more points for.almost tehe same when they playing in neutral site.

Bulldogs are hotter team ,only thing they are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 ncaa tournament games.

And why Gonzaga underdogs? Is it books trap? Cause I like them very much
any thoughts

Be careful comparing stats of teams that play in different conferences. Even if the ACC is down they are much tougher than the West Conference that Gonzaga plays against. In short you are going to shoot and rebound better playing Pepperdine, SClara, SD, San Fran etc... instead of playing Duke, GT, Maryland, Clemson and so on. Not saying FSU will necessarily win, just don't overlook them as having no shot based on some of the stats you have mentioned, FSU strength of schedule was 33, Gonzaga 116. Good luck today.

Not touching this game....I like Gonzaga getting points, but I also like FSU because they are BIG and athletic.

I really hope FSU wins and then puts it on Syracuse(if oanuakaua doesn't play, as you can tell I have no idea how to spell that name)

Ken Pom has this as a 4 point FSU victory. According to his numbers, Gonzaga has been very overrated this year (see St. Mary's blow out).
