Gonzaga vs San Francisco predictions

This Gonzaga Bulldogs and the San Francisco Dons are expected to have a highly competitive game as both teams are on the bubble and a win here could be a solid addition to their resume. ESPN Bet has the Bulldogs favored by 3.5 points on the road here and they should wind up winning the game.

These programs are very similar and each has 22 wins this year but the Bulldogs' offense has been a tier better than what we have seen out of the Dons this year.

The difference in rebounding is also a major factor, as Gonzaga is averaging 40.2 total rebounds per game while San Francisco is averaging 34.2 total rebounds per game.

San Francisco has been a solid team but this game is going to lean towards Gonzaga getting closer to locking in as one of the 64 teams in the NCAA Tournament.
