Pick

Gonzaga is the better team in this matchup by a wide margin, but how interested will they be in this game? Gonzaga is coming off of a huge win and they have the WCC Tournament coming up later this week. I think Gonzaga will coast to the victory here, but I am going to take Chicago State to keep it somewhat respectable.
