Saint Mary’s vs. Gonzaga Prediction, Picks & Odds | College Basketball Picks Today (Jan. 31)
No. 6 Gonzaga (21-1, 9-0 WCC) will put its 14-game win streak to the test with a conference matchup against Saint Mary’s (19-3, 8-1), and my Saint Mary’s vs. Gonzaga prediction dives into this rivalry matchup.
The Bulldogs are a 9-point favorite, but the Gaels have typically been their toughest matchup in the West Coast Conference. They've won three of the previous four meetings, suggesting value on the road team before tipoff at 10:30 p.m. ET on Saturday from McCarthey Athletic Center on ESPN.

Check out all of our college basketball analysis and expert predictions this season.
Thanks to the Gaels, Gonzaga gets at least one challenging opponent during conference play every year. Saint Mary’s has won six matchups over Gonzaga since 2022, including three of the previous four.
Of the last 11 battles in this series, Gonzaga has logged just three double-digit victories.
The Bulldogs have been showing signs of vulnerability during their impressive win streak, including a narrow two-point win over San Francisco last weekend. I expect Saint Mary’s to push Gonzaga on Saturday.
Score prediction: Gonzaga 76, Saint Mary’s 69
🔥 Best Saint Mary’s vs. Gonzaga player prop: Mikey Lewis, Saint Mary’s Over 11.5 points (-110) ⭐⭐⭐
