San Francisco Dons (ATS) ..

Although Gonzaga is coming off a dominant 19-win against Santa Clara (on the road,) the Zags haven't been particularly strong overall this season. Now, yes, the Bulldogs should be back in March Madness. However, it's partially biased in my opinion as I believe that the Dons should be in contention as well, with a better overall record than Gonzaga. The Bulldogs only won by 11 when they were at home against SF.

I had San Francisco on Wednesday when the Dons went on the road on took care of business against Oregon State. Now, this should be a much tougher game. However, a win here would go a very long way and I most definitely believe that the Dons can keep it within single digits at the very least. Like I said in my previous SF analysis, "they've also got one of the premier defenses in the country." That's going to help them stay in this game on Saturday evening. Don't be shocked if the boiling hot Dons upset the Zags on Saturday.

Score Prediction: 78-75 San Francisco.
