Final Four Top 10*
(NCAAB) South Carolina vs. Gonzaga, 04/01/2017 2:09 PM, Score: 73 - 77
Point Spread: -6.50 | -115.00 Gonzaga (Home)
Result: Loss
Gonzaga is a solid all around team. They can offset any defensive adjustment South Carolina may make with a balanced inside-outside attack. They also have the ability to play at a fast or slow tempo. That'll be a challenge for a South Carolina team that has exceeded their regular-season offensive and defensive standards. I don't think SC will be able to keep up offensively.

Gonzaga is legit and Mark Few has done a masterful job of implementing the offense around Colins and Karnowski. This team plays two 7- footers and they are both good. Gonzaga is simply too deep and talented for South Carolina to hang.

For Gonzaga is everything South Carolina is, but better. Led by Williams-Goss, the 3 guard attack has versatility and depth. Then there is the interior where a pair of 7 footers Karnowski and Colins patrol the paint and its tough for teams to drive and penetrate inside. But the real difference maker for the Zags has been Missouri transfer, Williams, for whom South Carolina may have no answer.



South Carolina has a great defense but Gonzaga has an even better defense and a top 15 offense. Zags can play a slow game in fact they can adjust to any style and I can see them winning by double digits on Saturday night.
