The Gonzaga Bulldogs have shown that they are the team to beat in college basketball and have already passed the Iowa destruction test last week. The Virginia Cavaliers have not played exactly against anyone so far, so the jury has yet to decide if they are as talented as they were in the past. What we know about Virginia is that it is as well trained as any other team in the league and that the defensive pressure does not change. This is also only the third time since March 2017, when Virginia is at a disadvantage of at least five points. You don’t get those chances often. Give me the Cavs and the points.
