The set-up: Gonzaga stayed at No. 1 in the AP's most recent poll (released this past Monday) and is two wins away from completing a perfect 30-0 regular season. The 28-0 Bulldogs (16-0 in WCC play) will host the 12-16 San Diego Toreros Thursday night, who check in at 5-11 in league play. Tonight's winning team is hardly in doubt, with only the margin TBD!

San Diego: The Toreros posted a 60-58 double-overtime victory against Santa Clara on Saturday, halting a five-game losing streak. San Diego's starting lineup does not feature a player taller than 6-7. Forwards Brett Bailey (15.9 & 7.0) and Cameron Neubauer (11.0 & 5.4) are 6-6 and 6-7, respectively. They are joined by guard Carter (15.2) but that trio doesn't get much help.

Gonzaga: PG Nigel Williams-Goss (a Washington transfer) averages 16.3 points, 5.7 rebounds and 4.8 assists, making him a near-lock for WCC player of the year honors. Up front, the 7-1 Karnowski (12.8 & 5.8), 7-0 freshman Collins (10.6 & 5.9) and the 6-9 Williams (9.9 & 5.8) should have their way with San Diego's small frontcourt. Gonzaga averages 85.4 PPG (10th) on 51.4% shooting (3rd).

The pick: San Diego only averages 66.0 PPG (322nd) on 41.1% shooting (318th) and in the first meeting this year, lost 79-43. Yes, Gonzaga has ripped off 20 consecutive double-digit victories but this impost is more than just a double digit one, it's more than three 'TDs!' Take the points and make San Diego a 10* play.
