On Sunday the free play is on Gonzaga. Game 717 at 12:10 eastern. Gonzaga is taking 7 points here today from a revitalized Syracuse team. While its hard to find negative stats for the Orangemen this may be too many points to lay here today. Villanova lost yesterday to St.Mary's in a battle of the West coast conference vs the Big East, and as we saw with Kansas the mid majors can be dangerous to any team. Gonzaga may not win here but their stats indicate they can stay with Syracuse. Gonzaga is 6-1 ats vs the Big East most recently and has won 7 of 9 vs teams who average 77 or more points per game. In games where they allowed 60 or less they do real well. They are 38-4 including 10-0 this year off these big defensive efforts. With 1 or less day of rest they are 9-2 and 4-1 when the total is 150 to 155. Look for a competitive game here to open things up on Sunday. Take the points. For the free play take Gonzaga plus the points. BOL GC
