Portland at Saint Mary's CA

The St. Mary's Gaels used to be the doormat in the West Coast Conference, but over the last few years that has changed dramatically as they now have become the biggest challenger of the strong hold Gonzaga has had on the conference. The Gaels are 18-4 on the season and a perfect 12-0 at home, and have won six straight games. They have not brought their "A" game to these mismatches however, as they are just 1-4 ATS as a chalk of -17 or more on the season. Portland has lost and failed to cover each of their last five, but they should be alive tonight as St. Mary's held them to a season low 38 points at home in their previous meeting. Conference teams favored by -20 or more have failed to an 84-134 ATS mark. Take the points.
