The Gonzaga Bulldogs face off against their old nemesis, the Saint Mary’s Gaels, on Saturday evening, at 7:00 pm, on ESPN.
The Zags are coming off of a harder-than-it-looked victory over Pepperdine on Thursday, The Waves stuck around with Gonzaga for the better part of 20 minutes, but ultimately, like everyone before them this season, couldn’t hang for the full 40.
Saint Mary’s looked like they were in the process of taking one from BYU last night. However, the Cougars outscored the Gaels 17-2 in the final 10 minutes to win, 62-52.

With the departure of Jordan Ford and Malik Fitts, it was always going to be an uphill climb for the Gaels this season.
