West Virginia plays great defense for Bob Huggins, on a 19-7-1 run UNDER the total. They are 3-0 and Huggins is still not satisfied with their defense. They head to a neutral court for this one at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. Top-ranked Gonzaga also plays intense defense, holding Auburn to 37.3% shooting and 67 points in the last game while forcing 17 turnovers. These teams met three years ago in the Sweet 16 of the 2017 NCAA Tournament, a defensive battle that Gonzaga won, 61-58, and this shapes up as another Top 20 defensive duel. Take West Virginia/Gonzaga UNDER the total.

Pro Picks
Gonzaga at West Virginia
The Mountaineers will be playing with double revenge in this one, and are finally getting the Zags at home, where they have been all but unbeatable outside of conference action. West Virginia owns a ridiculous 51-1 straight-up mark in their last 52 home games outside the conference, and will be loaded for bear tonight. Gonzaga has shot the ball extremely well, but will certainly be put to the test tonight. Under Bobby Huggins, West Virginia has allowed just 28 out of 217 opponents to shoot 50% or better (Gonzaga currently averaging 54.9%). After three straight games of home cooking, the Bulldogs are 3-13-1 ATS when taking to the road. Make the play on West Virginia.

Pro Picks
West Virginia vs. Gonzaga
The Gonzaga Bulldogs lost a lot from last year, but this program has proven time and time again that they just reload. The Bulldogs are 25-game winners once again, and arguably just one of their six losses on the season came against teams that would be considered worse than West Virginia. The Mountaineers have Bryant and Jones, and a lot of hope. While those two are top players the rest of the roster is mostly comprised of role players, and when either Bryant or Jones is off their game they struggle. West Virginia is very prone to long scoring droughts and because of that they blow a lot of big leads, and opponents take Jones and Bryant out of the game late, and West Virginia has suffered because of it. The Mountaineers finished just 3-7 ATS and 2-7 ATS in their last nine vs. winning teams, where they have struggled the most, as they have trouble finishing games. The Bulldogs ride-in with four straight ATS wins vs. the Big East and won't be intimidated here. Play on Gonzaga.
