The Gonzaga Bulldogs are rolling right now and no WCC team has given the Zags a scare as of yet, and Pepperdine will fall under that category. Gonzaga is too strong throughout their lineup as they have two guys in their frontcourt who can get a double-double on any given night as well as guards who can fill up the stat sheet. Gonzaga is a perfect 15-0 on their home court and they haven’t played a single digit game at home since December (Washington). Gonzaga wins and covers, 84-50.
