St. Mary vs. Gonzaga ( ZBOIZ IS THINKING ABOUT GOING ALL IN TONIGHT)
I'm thinking about going all in on Gonzaga ML!
I see the spread is dropping so I will wait before I go all in on the Zags ML!

Terrible game to go all in on, nothing would surprise me in this game except a Gonzaga blowout.

LT with all due respect you are not saying truths here. Why would it be less shocking if the Zags won by 15 then St. Marys winning on the road against Zags.

I actually think St. Mary's is the better team and they are playing with revenge after losing to the Zags at home. Then again, Gonzaga almost never loses at home. I see anywhere from Gonzaga barely covering to St. Mary's winning outright, just too tough of a game to call.

ZBOIZ! All in is the most obvious eventual losing proposition that exists. Why do you insist on inflicting misery on yourself? Don't go all in Z, ever. Money Managament Z not Money Manglement. Low and Slow Z, Marathon not a Sprint, chill out dude, breathe deep.
Relax.

When I seen both of these teams played earlier in the year Zaga was clearly the better team. St. Mary just didn't match there athleticism. I can see a 72- 61 victory tonight

Huh?
What makes you think that Gonzaga is clearly better? If St. Mary's didn't play their worst half of the season in the first half the first time these teams met, there wouldn't even be an argument.

Wrong, St. Mary's can match up with anyone athletically, they just played too tight in the first half that game and never recovered. Gaels rank 13th in the country in points per possession.

Profits stats are important but in some cases they can be overrated. The competition that St. Mary's faced this year out of conference is not impressive. I think if you gave Gonzaga that same schedule they will probably have 1 loss with all types of top 10 stats.

I think that St. Mary's has already proven in WCC play that they are the better team. Outside of the loss to Gonzaga and a five-point win vs. a pretty good Portland team, all their other conference wins have been blowouts. Gonzaga has the worst conference loss for either team (San Francisco). The only reason Gonzaga is ranked with four losses and St. Mary's is not at 21-3 is because of reputation, which is why polls mean nothing.

StMarys shot horribly the last time and still gave the Zags a game.

And I also think that St. Mary's would hold up just as well vs. Gonzaga's tougher out-of-conference schedule if given the chance. St. Mary's has done better vs. common opponents. Also, Pomeroy Ratings are adjusted for schedule, so the 13 ranking for St. Mary's in PPP is legit. The Gaels actually rank number ONE in raw PPP before adjusting for SOS.

That I don't agree with. Even Syracuse lost to bad school earlier in the year, do that justify there great season ? NO. Bottom line I believe games are played night to night and you have to judge these teams off there body of work. And for what I can see Gonzaga is the better team and they have already beaten St. Mary on there home floor.

And judging from the full body of work, St. Mary's is 21-3 with the higher ADJUSTED PPP. Again, if Gonzaga didn't win the head-to-head meeting, I don't think there would be any doubt that St. Mary's is better. I see absolutely nothing that clearly points to Gonzaga being the better team. Pomeroy has these teams back-to-back, ranking Gonzaga 42 and St. Mary's 43 overall.

LT are you really trying to talk sense into ZBOIZ? He cant even spell Pomeroy.
Hes going all in with 11 SBR points guys. Let it go

Difficult to see St.Mary's winning at Gonzaga. 0-6 since 2004. 7-25 vs. them in Spokane. Gonzaga has won 25 of the last 28. Saying all that, not touching a side. Like the total as usual.

This is best St. Mary's team in that time though.

Nice call by all Gonzaga backers, it was a bad day for me all the way around Thursday. Thankfully. today is another day.
