The #14 Gonzaga Bulldogs are 12-0 against the Portland Pilots since January of 2016, and they'll have a chance to extend that success on Saturday. The Bulldogs and Portland will face off in a West Coast battle at 7 p.m. ET at Earle A. Chiles Center. Gonzaga will be strutting in after a win while Portland will be stumbling in from a loss.

Gonzaga was able to grind out a solid victory over the Pacific Tigers on Saturday, winning 99-90. It was another big night for Gonzaga's forward Drew Timme, who had 38 points in addition to five rebounds.

Meanwhile, the matchup between the Pilots and the Loyola Marymount Lions on Thursday was not a total blowout, but with Portland falling 79-60 on the road, it was darn close to turning into one. Forward Moses Wood (15 points) was the top scorer for Portland.

Gonzaga's victory brought them up to 17-4 while Portland's defeat pulled them down to 11-12. A pair of stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: Gonzaga ranks first in college basketball when it comes to points per game, with 86.5 on average.
