Does someone want to explain to me how Gonzaga could cover against Cuse?????

I don't know enough about Gonzaga. Where will the points come from and how Zag backers? Can they handle that Cuse zone?

matt bouldin, steven gray, elias harris will be a lottery pick someday, no arinze is the bigger problem tho for cuse

They can score, they can shoot, but I do not believe they are of the calliber of a team like 'Cuse.  I think if anything, this has the makings of a scoring fest.  Lean the over 69.5 and 147.5.

Syracuse 83 Gonzaga 76

no one can handle it

I think the way Cuse wins is by their Zone D and solely by their D and the ability to keep the Zags from scoring over 70 pts...Ive watched boldin play and he has great ability to lead the team but I think that this team is just not enough to score on Cuse

I don't think they can handle the zone. The D could throw them off their game early and I don't think they are able to catch back up. Syracuse is simply a better team IMO.

 

But I just can't bring myself to lay that many points this year in the tourney. That is why the Zags COULD cover... because games have been closer in much more lop-sided match-ups than this so far. Logic is being defied on a consistent basis this year, and that alone makes me more interested in fitting a Cuse ML somewhere.

The Gaels win yesterday gives the Zags a shot of energy,Sacre will get Jackson in foul trouble down low...But he's no Omar Samhan...Bouldin is very ....great comp players,gotta hang in the first 5 minutes...

(10)St. Mary's took (2)Villanova straight up.

(9)Northern Iowa took (1)Kansas straight up.

(13)Murray St. took (4)Vanderbilt straight up.

(12)Cornell took (5)Temple straight up. 

(11)Washington took (6)Marquette straight up.

All dogs won outright there, any team can show up and play.  That's my reasoning for Gonzaga to cover the 6.5 today and maybe even take Syracuse outright. 

The Zags got buried by St marys in their conference tourney. They let them shoot 50% from 3 point land.

I think Cuse rolls.

I really like watching Bouldin play dont get me wrong...i just think Cuse is better overall...I see some late 3 pointers from the gaels to keep it relatively close at the end of the game but Cuse ML looks solid....
