Rotation #634: CBB Tuesday St Mary's Gaels +155 vs Gonzaga Bulldogs @ 9 ET - First off, why am I taking a shot with the +150 money line here instead of grabbing the +3.5 points? Well, the Bulldogs have won 25 games this season and all have been by a margin of at least 4 points! The Gaels only have one loss by less than 4 points this season and that one was by 3 points. So the odds suggest that if Gonzaga wins, they cover. But the fact is St Mary's is primed for an upset here in Las Vegas. They truly have closed the gap on the Bulldogs this season and did split the season series with them. Also, most of the guys that are on this Gaels team were with them last season when they got embarrassed here in Las Vegas and lost to the Bulldogs 77-51 in the WCC Championship Game! Trust me, they have not forgotten. They have the better defense this season and they are ready for payback here and there is a reason the Zags opened up as such a small favorite here. No points needed, the solid D of the Gaels helps lead the way to revenge here. ST MARY'S +155
