What to Know
The Loyola Marymount Lions and the #13 Gonzaga Bulldogs will face off in a West Coast clash at 11 p.m. ET Feb. 16 at Albert Gersten Pavilion. Loyola Marymount is out to keep their four-game home win streak alive.
The Lions lost a heartbreaker to the Santa Clara Broncos when they met last February, and they left with a heavy heart again on Saturday. Loyola Marymount fell just short of Santa Clara by a score of 71-69. Guard Cam Shelton did his best for Loyola Marymount, finishing with 36 points (a whopping 52% of their total).
Meanwhile, the Brigham Young Cougars typically have all the answers at home, but on Saturday Gonzaga proved too difficult a challenge. The Bulldogs took their game against the Cougars 88-81. Gonzaga got double-digit scores from four players: guard Julian Strawther (26), forward Drew Timme (19), guard Rasir Bolton (13), and forward Anton Watson (12).
The Lions are expected to lose this next one by 8. There could be an interesting gambling play in this one, as they have done quite well against the spread at home this season while Gonzaga have struggled against the spread on the road.
Gonzaga's win lifted them to 21-5 while Loyola Marymount's loss dropped them down to 17-10. In their victory, Gonzaga relied heavily on Julian Strawther, who had 26 points in addition to five rebounds. Loyola Marymount will need to find a way to minimize his impact if they want to win.
