Result:
WIN

This is a tough spot for Stanford as they are coming off a season's emotional high with a big come from behind win vs. top ranked UCLA. That is difficult in itself but they face in state rival California on Saturday, and with this being a non-conference game, it sets up as a perfect sandwich game. Gonzaga has had a very aggressive schedule this season, and at 15-7 don't have any bad losses except perhpas at St. Mary's. This is the last big game for the Zags befoe the NCAA tournament, so they will play a strong 40 minutes. They shoot 49% from the floor and 40% from three point land, so they will be a tough out for Stanford even if they can harbor the emotional intensity to match what they will get from Gonzaga.
