Best Bet For Wednesday (February 18th): College Basketball Predictions
#11 Gonzaga Bulldogs vs San Francisco Dons
Start Time: 11:00 PM EST
There are very few things you can count on in life (death, taxes, etc), but one of them is the Gonzaga Bulldogs sitting atop the West Coast Conference standings. The Bulldogs are in the top perch once again this year, going 13-1 in conference play (with their lone slipup coming on the road at Portland earlier this month), and 25-2 overall.
After having solid seasons in three of the past four years, the San Francisco Dons are back to being mediocre this season, and have only won one of their past four games and two of their last seven. They have an average offense and a below-average defense.
Gonzaga, meanwhile, has the fourth stingiest defense in the nation and a top-20 offense as well. While the Dons played the Zags close in their previous meeting this season, I consider that an aberration.
After crunching the numbers, my line for tomorrow is Gonzaga -19, so the Bulldogs on the spread is my best bet for Wednesday.
Best Bet: Gonzaga -13.5 (-127)
Best Bet Overall 2026 Record: 31-16 (66%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): $920.11
Return on Investment: 20%
