Today's NCAA Basketball Picks:
Game: Gonzaga at San Diego (9:00 PM Eastern)
Pick: 3 units on Gonzaga -7 (-110) (risk 3 to win 2.7)
Yes, this is a home game for San Diego. But, it won't matter. The Toreros upset St. Mary's last night to advance to this title game. After a blowout win over Pepperdine and last night's win, it's been a good story for the host team, but Gonzaga has too much for them to overcome tonight. San Diego is somewhat lucky to be here. They shot 34.5% in the first half against St. Mary's last game and trailed by 13 points at the half. They caught fire in the second half and forced overtime. They scored three points in the first overtime, but luckily so did their opponent. In any case, that was a draining and somewhat fortunate win. Now they get the Bulldogs who are 11-5 on the road this season and holding their last five foes to 56.8 points per game. Gonzaga averaged 80.9 ppg in conference play which is over 14 points per game more than did San Diego. Under Few, this team is 25-15 ATS in March games and the Zags have covered 39 of their last 62 tournament-road games and should have no problem here.

Saint Bonaventure has won just eight games all season, and the teams they beat are pretty much at the bottom of the barrel. The reason we mention this, is George Washington has played 12 road games an...

Let's set the stage for this pick. How big is the Duke vs. North Carolina game? It means everything to the fans, coaches, recruitment, and players. How distracting is it to the players knowing it ...
