Gonzaga vs. Georgia Prediction
Based on one historically profitable NCAAB betting system, the Gonzaga vs. Georgia prediction for Thursdayโs game is the Gonzaga Spread (-6.5, -110).
History tells us to consider laying points with favorites that own an outstanding record in one facet: free throw shooting.ย
Dating back to the 2006 NCAA Tournament, teams priced between -20 and -1.5 with a free throw percentage north of 77.2% are 40-12-1 ATS.ย
When those favorites fall between -7 and -1.5, they improve from 76.9% ATS to 34-10 ATS (77.3%).ย
Taking it one step further, this system improves to a higher hit rate with favorites coming off a game as market favorites.ย
Sample favorites with all the same criteria that closed a favorite in their last game, and bettors will find theyโre 31-7-1 ATS (81.6%).ย
Between -7 and -1.5: 26-6 ATS, when they closed as a favorite in their last game.ย
As a result, consider laying the points with the Zags in the round of 64.ย
