Another Strong Start For The Bulldogs
Gonzaga enters at 3–0 and has looked dominant in each of its wins, including a statement 90–63 victory over No. 23 Creighton. The Bulldogs shot nearly 53% from the field in that game, outscored Creighton 48–20 in the paint, and showed off their trademark balance with five players scoring in double figures. Graham Ike was the star, posting 20 points and 10 rebounds, but the depth of this roster is what makes them dangerous. Transfers Adam Miller and Tyon Grant-Foster have fit seamlessly into Mark Few’s system, giving Gonzaga multiple scoring options across the floor.
Offensively, Gonzaga has been rolling, averaging just over 90 points per game while shooting 50.5% from the field. They’ve been relentless on the glass, pulling down nearly 48 rebounds per game, and their ball movement has been sharp, with 60 assists through three contests. While their three-point shooting has been streaky at 31%, their ability to dominate inside and create second-chance opportunities has more than compensated. Against Arizona State, the Bulldogs will look to impose their size and pace, forcing the Sun Devils into a faster game than they’re comfortable playing.
Defensively, Gonzaga has been equally impressive, holding opponents to just 58 points per game and limiting them to 33.7% shooting overall. They’ve forced nearly 17 turnovers per contest and have been aggressive in disrupting passing lanes. That defensive intensity, combined with their rebounding dominance, has allowed them to control tempo and wear teams down. Facing Arizona State’s young roster, Gonzaga’s experience and physicality could be the deciding factor, especially if they can neutralize the Sun Devils’ frontcourt and keep their guards from finding rhythm.

Sun Devils Have Yet To Be Tested
Arizona State comes in at 2–0, but this is their first true test of the season. The Sun Devils have picked up double-digit wins over Southern Utah and Utah Tech, showing flashes of promise under Bobby Hurley. Freshman center Massamba Diop has been the breakout star, averaging 16 points and nearly six rebounds per game while providing a defensive presence in the paint. Transfers Santiago Trouet and Moe Odum have also stepped up, with Odum averaging 11.5 points and seven assists, giving ASU a steady hand at point guard. This roster is young and still finding its identity, but the talent is there.
Offensively, Arizona State has been balanced, averaging 81 points per game while shooting 46% from the field. Diop has been the focal point inside, but Anthony Johnson and Allen Mukeba have added scoring depth, giving the Sun Devils multiple options. Their ball movement has been solid, and they’ve shown the ability to get hot from three, though consistency remains a question. Against Gonzaga’s defense, ASU will need to value possessions and avoid turnovers, as the Bulldogs thrive on turning mistakes into fast-break points.
Defensively, the Sun Devils have been respectable, allowing 66 points per game and holding opponents under 40% shooting. They’ve rebounded well and shown energy in contesting shots, but this will be a major step up in competition. Gonzaga’s size and depth will test their ability to defend without fouling, and their young roster will need to stay composed against a team that thrives on physical play. Playing at home gives ASU a boost, but they’ll need their defense to rise to the occasion if they want to keep this game close.
Gonzaga vs Arizona State Pick
Gonzaga vs Arizona State Spread Pick
- Gonzaga -13 (2 Units)
Gonzaga -13 feels like the right side because the Bulldogs have already shown they can dominate quality opponents, as evidenced by their blowout win over Creighton. Graham Ike has been a force inside, and the supporting cast of Adam Miller and Tyon Grant-Foster gives them multiple scoring options that Arizona State simply doesn’t have the depth to match. Gonzaga’s ability to control the glass and generate second-chance points makes them especially dangerous against a young Sun Devils team still finding its rhythm. If the Bulldogs dictate tempo and keep the game in the paint, their physicality should create separation on the scoreboard.
On the defensive end, Gonzaga has been suffocating, holding opponents under 60 points per game while forcing turnovers at a high rate. Arizona State has shown flashes of promise, but their offense hasn’t faced a defense with this kind of length and discipline. The Bulldogs’ rebounding edge and ability to disrupt passing lanes should limit ASU’s scoring opportunities, and once Gonzaga gets rolling offensively, it’s hard for opponents to keep pace. With their proven balance and experience, the Bulldogs are well-positioned to cover the double-digit spread in Tempe.
Gonzaga vs Arizona State Over/Under Pick
- Under 161 (1 Unit)
The Under 161 looks like a sharp angle because Gonzaga’s defense has been suffocating, holding opponents under 60 points per game, while Arizona State plays at a slower, more methodical pace that limits possessions. The Bulldogs can score, but they’ve leaned heavily on their inside game rather than high-volume three-point shooting, which naturally keeps totals in check. Meanwhile, the Sun Devils are still finding their offensive rhythm and haven’t faced a defense with Gonzaga’s length and discipline. With ASU likely struggling to generate consistent looks and Gonzaga content to control tempo through rebounding and half-court execution, this matchup projects as a lower-scoring contest that stays beneath the number.
