Kentucky vs Gonzaga Prediction | College Basketball Betting Picks
Kentucky, led by the senior center Oscar Tshiebwe, looks to build on momentum after beating South Carolina State comfortably last time out. Oscar came off the bench last time mainly because it was only his second game back from the knee injury that kept him sidelined for the first two games of the season. Depending on what Coach Cal decides, expect him to come off the bench once again in an effort to keep him healthy. With him on the bench, Frederick and Wheeler will have to step up to defend Drew Timme and the Bulldogs. KenPom ranks this Kentucky offense number one in that nation, so that should be no problem for the cats.
Gonzaga got absolutely bullied by Texas last time out, losing by almost 20 points. Turnovers, sharing the ball, missed opportunities at the free throw line, and the shooting were reasons for the loss. Gonzaga turned the ball over 20 times. For a top-five team, that is absolutely unacceptable. Drew Timme led the Bulldogs in the loss with 18, followed by Julian Strawther, who contributed 13 points. This time, with Kentucky coming to town, Gonzaga will attempt to protect their home court, which they have done in so many occasions, including the last 10 home games. The turnovers will have to be cut down excessively to give Gonzaga a realistic shot at the Wildcats.
