| CBB | (785) Gonzaga at (786) Santa Clara: Total | 10:30pm EST - Feb 14/2026 |
The PLAY: Total Over 158.5 (-110)
Gonzaga–Santa Clara is built for points because both teams play with real tempo and both offenses are operating at an elite level in WCC play. The Zags sit 75th in pace, Santa Clara is even faster at 65th, and the efficiency on both sides is off the charts: Gonzaga is scoring 82.5 ppg in league play on 50.6% shooting with a dominant 57.7% on twos, while Santa Clara has been even more explosive at 87.8 ppg, hitting 50.2% from the field, 60.8% on twos, and over 36% from three. Neither defense is built to slow the other’s strengths—Gonzaga’s perimeter defense has allowed 8.1 made threes per game in WCC action, and Santa Clara’s defense has given up 71.8 ppg with opponents shooting 45.2%, numbers that won’t hold up against the Zags’ interior attack. Add in the pace, the shot volume, and two offenses that rank top‑two in the league in nearly every scoring category, and this matchup naturally trends toward a high‑possession, high‑efficiency shootout. Over 158.5 is the right side.
