The Baylor Bears have five wins and two losses is their record so far. They play quite well, but sometimes the advantages slip away from them in an unbelievable way. Against Virginia, to whom they lost 86-79, Baylor was playing well and dominated until halftime. Later, the team came back from the locker room and fell down in a very dramatic fashion.
The loss against Marquette was even harder, with a score of 96-70, and the team did not look good at all. The alarming thing about that loss is that the Golden Eagles are a much more discreet team and the fall was totally unexpected. On defense they could not rebound and they could not build offensively. That’s what turned on all the Baylor spotlights.
Still, they have good players like LJ Cryer who is averaging 17.9 points per game, and when he’s on his game he assists, he’s averaging five assists per game. They also have Adam Flager on offense, who gives 6.9 assists per game. With the two of them Baylor is going strong.
Betting on Gonzaga Bulldogs
- Regular Season Record: 5-2
- BetMGM Spread: (To be defined)
- BetMGM Moneyline: (To be defined)
- BetMGM Over/Under: (To be defined)
Gonzaga also has five wins and two losses as its record. They play quite well, but sometimes the advantages slip away from them in an incredible way. Sounds familiar. This is because Gonzaga is going in the same way, and they play in a very similar style to their current opponent. Against Texas they fell at halftime, and against Purdue they fell by a score of 84-66. Baylor and Gonzaga are the same on the slate.
Perhaps Gonzaga’s losses are a little more logical because they were against teams considered among the best in the country.
Drew Timmie is averaging 20 points per game and Julian Strawther (14.1 points, 8.4 rebounds) is rebounding very well. That gives the team a lot of shape, but the problem is that they flame runs out against tougher teams and that, unfortunately, is not good for their cause as one of the contenders for the championship.
JefeBet Prediction
Although they are evenly matched, Baylor fares better against much stronger teams, so we think they will take the win against Gonzaga, who can’t handle the pressure in important moments.
Besides, Baylor plays more as a team and does not depend on individuals, something that does happen in Gonzaga, and that it can be noticed, as when its stars are not in a good moment, the whole team ends up suffering in the game. Baylor has more arguments and will take the victory, although it will cost them a lot, because Gonzaga is not bad, it just gets cold.
Prediction: Baylor Bears Spread.
