Gonzaga has kept its momentum after notching its first Quadrant 1 win of the season with an 89-85 road upset of Kentucky. The Bulldogs have hammered its last three West Coast Conference foes since falling to Saint Mary’s, cruising past Portland, Loyola Marymount and Pacific. Gonzaga is a monster favorite on Thursday at Chiles Center, can they cruise in style to their second five-game winning streak in conference play in a rematch with Portland?
Portland has dropped its last four games and has only been competitive in one of those contests. The Pilots end the regular season with a three-game homestand, but they’ve won just one of their last four at home.
