We have one of the best teams in the NCAA competing tonight. The college basketball standings have the Gonzaga Bulldogs ranked 9th in the nation right now.
Looking at the NCAAB schedule, we are in for the Bulldogs vs Dons tonight. The last time these two teams played against each other, the Bulldogs won 89-73. This should be just like their last matchup because the Bulldogs are coming to grab their eighth win in a row.
Gonzaga Talent
The Bulldogs are the betting favorites, and that should not be a surprise to anyone. They have shown their talent during this season, including one big win against Alabama.
The Dons will try and give them a fight and knock them off their seven-win streak, but it will be a hard thing to accomplish tonight.
Gonzaga Bulldogs vs. San Francisco Dons Odds
Gonzaga vs San Francisco odds has the Bulldogs going into this game as the 11-point favorites. Their NCAAB odds of covering 11 points are currently at -110.
The Bulldogs are in this spot due to the fact they have had a great start to the season. Barring any unexpected news on the college basketball injury report, I believe that Drew Timme will be able to go off for over 20 points and propel Gonzaga to another W.

Gonzaga Bulldogs vs. San Francisco Dons Betting Preview
These NCAA basketball teams always have great players that make up the team. Gonzaga has a stacked roster this year and enough players to make it to the Final Four.
Gonzaga Bulldogs Main Leaders
I believe the Bulldogs will not let anyone down this year and be able to make a great run. For this to happen, the stars of this Bulldogs team must shine, and those players are Drew Timme, Julian Strawther, and Rasir Bolton. These three college basketball players are some of the top players in the NCAA.
Drew Timme is one of the greatest Gonzaga Bulldogs basketball players to play. He just keeps improving each year he is with the Bulldogs, and this year is no different. Timme is the main leader for this Bulldogs team, as he has put up great numbers, including 22.7 points per game and 8.3 rebounds per game. Timme will be the man to watch for in tonight’s game.
Helping Timme out this year has been star Strawther, who loves to shoot the ball. The Gonzaga Bulldogs stats also have Strawther averaging 40.2% from beyond the arc, which is impressive for a junior.
Strawther has also been scoring and rebounding this year by adding 13.5 points per game and getting 7.5 rebounds per game as well. This will be another star player to watch during the game tonight.
San Francisco Dons Defense
Even though the Bulldogs are a powerful team, the Dons also have some special players of their own. Those three players are Khalil Shabazz, Tyrell Roberts, and Zane Meeks. These players have held their own this year, and it will be fun to watch against the Bulldogs’ defense.
Starting with Khalil Shabazz, who will be the main factor in tonight’s game. Shabazz has gotten off to a great start this season and has not looked back. Shabazz has been the main player to go to this season, with him being able to average 15.5 points and 5.8 rebounds per game.
Roberts is another star that the Dons have in the bag, and he has had a great start to the season. Roberts has been averaging 14.2 points per game and helping little on the boards with 3.4.
Key Injuries
San Francisco Dons injury report has Zane Meeks out for this game. Meeks has been averaging 12.0 points and 6.8 rebounds per game.
Shabazz and Roberts will need to step up and have an outstanding game to have a chance against the Bulldogs.
Gonzaga Bulldogs vs. San Francisco Dons Betting Picks
Looking at the Gonzaga vs San Francisco odds, we can see that the over/under is set at 156.5 points, which will probably hit. The Bulldogs are known to run the score up and beat teams by 20-30 points.
The Gonzaga vs San Francisco odds have the Bulldogs sitting at -630. This is no surprise since the Dons truly do not match up to the talented Bulldogs. The Dons Moneyline is sitting at +460.
This should be one of the better NCAA basketball games today, but I do not see an upset happening. When making college basketball picks, take the Bulldogs to cover and the over to hit!
