After a surprising 87-80 defeat to the Portland Pilots, the Gonzaga Bulldogs head south to face the Oregon State Beavers on Saturday. Gonzaga will be looking to bounce back and avenge last year's overtime loss to Oregon State, though the Beavers have a very different roster this season after losing all five starters from that game. The Zags are heavy favorites, but will need to shore up their defense and limit fouls to get the win.
Why it matters
This game is an important test for Gonzaga as they look to rebound from their first loss of the season. A win would help them regain momentum, while a second straight loss could raise concerns about the team's ability to bounce back from adversity. For Oregon State, this is a chance to pull off another upset against a top-ranked opponent and build on their recent winning streak.
The details
Gonzaga is coming off a shocking 87-80 loss to the Portland Pilots on Wednesday, ending their 20-game winning streak against their WCC rival. The Bulldogs will need to quickly regroup as they head to Corvallis to take on an Oregon State team that beat them in overtime last season. However, the Beavers have a very different roster this year, having lost all five of their starters from that game. Gonzaga will be relying on Graham Ike, who had 26 points and 9 rebounds in last year's overtime loss, as well as Emmanuel Innocenti. Oregon State has won three straight games and sits at 6-6 in conference play, but will be significant underdogs against the talented Gonzaga squad.
