A late run allowed the Baylor Bears to get past Syracuse in their first-round matchup. They are thrown a much bigger punch here in the top-seeded Gonzaga Bulldogs who made light work of their first round opponent.

The Zags took a 60-47 loss as a 15-point favorite against St. Mary's in the WCC Tournament title game but bounced back with an 87-49 rout of Fairleigh Dickinson Thursday night.

Gonzaga has been asked to cover big spreads all season long and has rarely disappointed, going 22-12 ATS in games as a 14-point favorite or more.

The Bears are just 1-5-1 ATS in their last seven games overall while the Bulldogs are 14-5 ATS in their last 19 games following a straight up win of more than 20 points and 9-3-1 ATS in their last 13 vs. teams from the Big 12.

Baylor is a decent team defensively, but has nowhere near the offensive firepower to compete with Gonzaga.

10* play on Gonzaga Bulldogs.
