ROB V: SWEET 16 GAME OF THE YEAR- TRIPLE PERFECT POWER PLAY
(NCAAB) UCLA vs. Gonzaga,
Point Spread: -8.50 | -107.00 Gonzaga (Home)
Result: Win
The SWEET 16 Super side is on Gonzaga. Game 882 at 7:15 eastern. This the best team in recent years for The Zags as they have set a win total record this year and are led by super star point guard Pankos who is starting to remind some folks of a young Steve Nash, the way he orchestrates the offense. Gonzaga fits some powerful systems sets as well. Teams seeded 1 o2 2 in this round have covered 96% of the time if they are laying 11.5 or less and won the first 2 games by 10+ points and are playing a team seeded 6th or worse provided our team won 26 or more games last season. UCLA is a team that has been opportunistic as they managed to get past SMU on a gold tending call and then drew an overmatched UAB Team that won by 1 point over a flat footed Iowa St team. UCLA is 0-16 ats in games they lose in this tournament and has lost 2 of 3 in the series including getting hammered at home by Gonzaga earlier in the season. Teams that are 2 seeds in this round are 10-3 ats off a spread win by 10 or more. UCLA is 1-7 ats in this round. The Zags have shot 50% or higher the last 4. 2 seeds vs 11 seeds are 12-1. Look for Gonzaga to get the win and cover.
