Check out all of our college basketball analysis and expert predictions this season.

Santa Clara is in a strong position to cover against Gonzaga tonight, especially on its home floor. The Broncos play with pace and confidence at Leavey Center, where their offense tends to be more efficient and their shooters more comfortable.

Gonzaga has shown vulnerability on the road this season, particularly defending the perimeter, which plays into Santa Clara’s strengths. The Broncos can stretch the floor, knock down threes, and create matchup problems in transition. If they control tempo and limit second-chance opportunities, Santa Clara should stay within the number and potentially win outright.

Score prediction: Santa Clara 77, Gonzaga 75


🔥 Best Gonzaga vs. Santa Clara player prop: Graham Ike Over 21.5 points (-125) 

Graham Ike is in a prime spot to score over 21.5 points against Santa Clara tonight. He remains Gonzaga’s most reliable interior scoring option, with a polished post game and strong touch around the rim. Santa Clara has struggled at times defending physical big men, particularly those who can establish deep position early in possessions.

Ike also draws frequent trips to the free-throw line, which raises his scoring floor in competitive games. If Gonzaga feeds him consistently and the pace stays steady, Ike should have the volume and efficiency needed to clear 22 points.
