Gonzaga -11
Total: 137 points

Gonzaga is the biggest favorite in this third day of the NCAA Tournament and the beginning of the second round. The Bulldogs laying double-digit points favors them comfortably against Northwestern as the dream season could be coming to an end for the Wildcats.

Northwestern made the tournament, which was great. They even won a game in crazy fashion, which adds to the overall enjoyment of the opportunity. And yet, when it comes down to it tonight this game looks like Gonzaga should comfortably win.

The Zags are bigger, have more post season experience and they finally feel like this is their year as well.

So we have two teams believing this is their year. Gonzaga is clearly the better basketball team, but March can be funny when it comes to basketball. Even so, it would take a very good effort by Northwestern to win.
