San Francisco vs Gonzaga Game Preview, West Coast Conference Tournament


Why San Francisco Will Win

The Dons might have lost to Gonzaga 78-62 several days ago, but they bounced back fast and got back to norm with two straight blowout wins.

One of the most dangerous teams in the West Coast Conference, they bomb away hitting 36% from three and coming up with close to ten per game. They nailed half of their outside shots in the first game against the Bulldogs, but they struggled to do much of anything else.

They’re usually far better at defending the three than they were in the first game, they’re terrific at generating turnovers, and Gonzaga just showed they’re vulnerable.

The offense clunked in a 67-57 loss to Saint Mary’s the last time out, and now comes the opposite of what happened in that. San Francisco is going to shoot and keep shooting from the outside, but …

Why Gonzaga Will Win

Gonzaga has had to sit back and groove on the loss to Saint Mary’s for a week. Now it’s going to be rested and a wee bit angry.

The best-scoring team in the nation didn’t move the ball around against Saint Mary’s – they only had four assists against the Gaels – and they’re going to come out fast, get on the move, and pound away on the inside.

San Francisco – for all of the positives – get hit with a whole lot of fouls. It was whistled with just 14 the first time against Gonzaga, but it’s probably going to be closer to 20 in this.

And the Bulldogs will hit their free throws.

San Francisco vs Gonzaga: What’s Going To Happen

San Francisco will get down fast to the Bulldogs, but the threes will make this close as the game goes on. And then, with about ten minutes to go, Gonzaga will go off.

The rust will be gone and the fresh legs will show up in a great run to look and play like the No. 1 team in the country again.

Gonzaga vs San Francisco Game Preview


Why Gonzaga Will Win

Gonzaga hasn’t exactly been hit with a big right hook lately, but it’s proving it can take a punch.

It’s all relative, but Saint Mary’s, Pepperdine, and Santa Clara all hung around with the Bulldogs just enough to make things interesting – and then they all lost big.

The Gonzaga offense continues to be the best in the nation from the field, the defense continued to be the best in the nation on the boards, and even when there’s a little bit of a problem, there’s always a scoring burst that makes everything okay.

San Francisco delivered a few punches against Gonzaga in late January, and it lost 78-62.

Making things even harder, Gonzaga has been stronger on the offensive boards, fantastic on the free throw line, and …

Why San Francisco Will Win

The Dons can play.

The offense might have stalled in the loss to Saint Mary’s, but it perked right back up to hang 104 on Pacific.

It’s a great team on the boards – it’s the best in the West Coast Conference on the defensive glass – and the threes come in bunches. It’s the type of team that could give Gonzaga a whole lot of issues.

How do you beat the No. 1 team in the land? You have to be red hot from the outside, create a slew of turnovers, and make it a crazy back-and-forth fight if the Don offense can keep up.

What’s Going To Happen

After three straight games on the road and five in the last seven, San Francisco is back in War Memorial with the right style and the right mix to make this a battle, and …

Gonzaga is terrific at guarding the three.

San Francisco hit just 29% from the outside in the first meeting and Gonzaga’s defense hasn’t fallen off a bit since then.

The threes will be dropping, though, enough to make this a whole lot of fun. The Bulldogs will pull it out, but they’ll have to sweat.
