“He’s special,” Gonzaga coach Mark Few said of Williams-Goss, who had 10 points and nine rebounds by halftime. “He deserves to be an All-American. He’s a leader of a team that’s 25-0.”
Johnathan Williams added 13 points for the Bulldogs while Killian Tillie, Jordan Mathews and Zach Collins all added 11 points for Gonzaga.
More importantly, the Zags average nearly 14 points per game more than the Gaels while allowing just six more points per game defensively. I love St. Mary’s second-ranked defense (56.6 ppg) but the Gaels are too offensively-challenged to keep up with the high-scoring Bulldogs.

I’m hoping St. Mary’s can hand Gonzaga their first loss of the season, the more I look into this matchup, the more I can see he Bulldogs getting the win and ATS cover. The Bulldogs are 9-1 ATS in their last 10 Saturday games and a bankroll-boosting 24-5-1 ATS in their last 30 games overall.More importantly, the Zags average nearly 14 points per game more than the Gaels while allowing just six more points per game defensively.
