What to Know

A West Coast battle is on tap between the #2 Gonzaga Bulldogs and the Saint Mary's Gaels at 10 p.m. ET Saturday at University Credit Union Pavilion. Zags is looking to extend their current 16-game winning streak.

Zags had enough points to win and then some against the Loyola Marymount Lions on Thursday, taking their matchup 85-67. Forward Drew Timme and forward Filip Petrusev were among the main playmakers for the Bulldogs as the former had 17 points along with eight rebounds and the latter had 21 points in addition to six rebounds.

Meanwhile, even if it wasn't a dominant performance, Saint Mary's beat the San Diego Toreros 66-60 on Thursday. The Gaels relied on the efforts of guard Jordan Ford, who had 19 points and six assists, and forward Malik Fitts, who dropped a double-double on 17 points and 14 boards.

When the two teams previously met in March of last year, Zags lost to Saint Mary's by a decisive 60-47 margin. The loss knocked Zags out of the playoffs, so expect them to come at Saint Mary's with a vengeful fire.
