Why Gonzaga Will Cover The Spread/Win

Gonzaga has managed to get to the Round of 32 and they did this with good scoring and shooting. Now, they hope their best players can again carry them to the promised land as they try and make the Sweet Sixteen.

During the season, Ike averaged 16.9 points per game while shooting 62 percent from the field. Ultimately, he looks to stay hot and keep rebounding the ball. Watson averaged 14.2 points per game while shooting 59 percent from the field, including 43 percent from the triples. Therefore, look for him to try and maintain his hot shooting and rebounding.

Hickman averaged 14 points per game while shooting 45.9 percent from the hardwood. Thus, he hopes to keep his hot hand. Ryan Nembhard averaged 12.8 points per game while shooting 45.3 percent from the floor. However, he will look for better shots after going 2 for 7 from the hardwood. Nembhard also must limit his mistakes as he turned the ball over three times. Overall, Gonzaga must limit their turnovers.

Gonzaga will cover the spread if their best players continue to execute and shoot the ball well. Then, they must hold onto the rock.

Why Kansas Will Cover The Spread/Win

Kansas has made it to the Round of 32 despite losing Kevin McCullar for the rest of the season due to a knee injury. Therefore, they have overcome some adversity and hope to keep that going.

Dickinson averaged 18 points and 10.8 rebounds per game during the regular season while shooting 55 percent from the floor. Amazingly, he shot the ball well and was a monster on the boards. Adams averaged 12.1 points per game while shooting 59.9 percent from the hardwood. Therefore, look for him to try and keep the hot hand. Furphy averaged nine points per game while shooting 49.2 percent in the regular season. Yet, he stepped up with a good game against Sanford. Harris averaged 8.3 points per game during the season. But he must shoot better and cut down the mistakes.

Kansas will cover the spread if they stay hot on the court. Moreover, they need to avoid making mistakes. Turning the ball over 17 times against Gonzaga would certainly eliminate them.

Final Gonzaga-Kansas Prediction & Pick

This is one of the toughest games to predict because both teams are very strong. Consequently, losing their best player may have cost Kansas a chance to make a deep run. The turnovers worry me. Yet, both teams turned it over a lot. The winner of this game will come down to who is more responsible with the basketball. The oddsmakers have favored Gonzaga. Yet, 3.5 points is a lot for them against a talented team like Kansas. This game could literally go down to the last seconds. Kansas covers the spread and possibly wins the game.
