Final Thoughts Heading Into March Madness 2019
That loss to Saint Mary's exposed vulnerabilities.
The Gaels held Gonzaga's leading scorer Rui Hachimura in check and limited the Zags (30-3) to 2-of-17 shooting from 3-point range to end the nation's longest winning streak at 21 games.
Saint Mary's controlled the pace in round three against Gonzaga, bogging down the Zags' offense and forcing them into difficult shots. Gonzaga struggled to get anything to fall, open or not, scoring a season-low 24 points by halftime and missing six of its seven 3-point attempts.
Gonzaga was never able to speed the Gaels up and rev up their high-scoring offense, showing a weakness that could be exploited in the NCAA Tournament.
Bookie Analysis
Gonzaga's win streak hasn't necessarily translated into covers ahead of the Saint Mary's Straight Up loss (and obvious failed cover). It's still been a blood bath for books throughout the Western Washington region and the need for a powerful Pay Per Head platform cannot be overstated.
