The Alabama Crimson Tide will be taking on the Gonzaga Bulldogs on Saturday, December 4th.
The tip-off is set for 8:00 ET from Climate Pledge Arena.
The Bulldogs started off as an 8 point favorite and that number is now up to 9.5. The total has gone from 162.5 to 160.5.
Alabama Crimson Tide
This is an Alabama team that has started off the year very well. I have liked the way they have played in a short sample.
They last played on November 28th, where they beat the Miami Hurricanes by a score of 96-64. They did just what they had to do against a team they were a lot better than.
Alabama will be challenged a lot when they go against Gonzaga. They have not faced anyone yet who is on the level of the Bulldogs.
Keon Ellis was the leading scorer over Miami with 22 points. Both JD Davison and Juwan Gary added 13 points.
Gonzaga Bulldogs
Gonzaga definitely looks like one of the best teams in the country. They are incredibly well-coached and their talent is off the charts.
The Bulldogs have a record of 7-1 this year. Their lone loss was to the Duke Blue Devils. That was a very good game, but Duke just executed better when it mattered most.
This club beat the Tarleton State Texans on Monday by a score of 64-55. That is a game they should have won by more points because the opponent they were playing was really not that good. It will be much harder for them when they take on the Tide.
A lot of different people stepped up offensively in the win over the Texans. Three players reached double figures and the leading scorer was Rasir Bolton, who had 17 points.

Free Alabama Crimson Tide vs. Gonzaga Bulldogs NCAAB Prediction:
This is a game where I see Gonzaga taking control early and often.
4* Free CBB Betting Pick: Gonzaga ATS
This is not a knock on this Alabama team, but they are not on the level of this Gonzaga team. I just have a hard time seeing them compete with one of the better teams in the nation.
I could see this game starting off close, but as time goes on, I see the Zags just taking over. I feel that their talent will be too much for the Tide to handle.
For me, the 9.5 is not too high. It may not be a total blowout, but I do feel Gonzaga can win pretty handily. I have a hard time seeing the Alabama defense being able to consistently shut down the Zags offense. When they get rolling, it is damn near impossible to quiet them.
I will take Gonzaga at -9.5 in this one.
