Nicholls at Gonzaga picks and predictions

Prediction

Gonzaga 85, Nicholls 48

Moneyline

PASS.

The ML is OTB.

Against the spread

LEAN GONZAGA -36.5 (-110).

This spread is hardly worth a wager with Gonzaga being such a heavy favorite.

Nicholls’ only experience this season as a double-digit underdog resulted in a 37-point loss at Cincinnati Nov. 15.

On the flip side, Gonzaga has covered its last 4 games as a double-digit favorite, including a a 34-point cover against Long Beach State.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 155.5 (-110).

Gonzaga has scored 89 or more points in 3 of its last 4 games; however, its offense will not be an issue Wednesday.

Nicholls’ offense will be what prevents the Over from hitting. The Colonels have scored 73 points in 2 of their last 3 games and put up just 49 at Cincinnati as a 27.5-point underdog Nov. 15.
