Another year, another Mark Few team that looks like a national-championship contender. Stacked with veterans and talented transfers, the Gonzaga Bulldogs (1-0, 1-0 home, 1-0 ATS) will host the Arizona State Sun Devils (2-0, 0-0 away, 1-1 ATS) at 2:00 pm PT/5:00 pm ET at McCarthey Athletic Center in Spokane on Sunday, Nov. 10. ESPN will carry the broadcast. Coming off a 101-63 laugher against then-#8 Baylor, the Bulldogs are massive 22.5-point favorites against ASU.

Gonzaga’s Depth Will Be a Problem … for Opponents
Returning six of their top-seven scorers from last season (81.4% of total minutes from 2023-24), when they went 27-8 and reached another Sweet 16 – their record-tying ninth in a row – Gonzaga went ahead and added the likes of Arkansas’ Khalif Battle (14.8 PPG, 3.3 RPG last season) and Pepperdine’s Michael Ajayi (17.2 PPG, 9.9 RPG) in the transfer portal, giving Mark Few an absolute embarrassment of riches.
Gonzaga’s insane depth was on full display in their season-opening rout of the Bears. Five players finished in double-figures, led by Nolan Hickman with 17, while seven scored at least nine points. Five different Bulldogs hit at least one triple while the team shot 41.9% from beyond the arc.
In a rarity in the Scott Drew era, the Bears were out-rebounded on the offensive glass by the Zags (16-14). That was one of the Achilles’ heels for Gonzaga last year, finishing just 114th in the nation at preventing offensive rebounds.
Gonzaga already moved from ninth to third in the KenPom ratings after one game, now trailing just Auburn and Houston, and not by much.
Arizona State Offense Highly Suspect
The Sun Devils are 2-0 but there are massive question marks surrounding the ASU offense, in particular. After finishing just 14-18 overall last year with the 218th-ranked offense in terms of efficiency, Arizona State only returns five players from their 2023-24 roster, and only one of their top-five scorers, guard Adam Miller (12.0 PPG, 3.2 RPG, 1.6 APG).
Now in his tenth season with the Sun Devils, head coach Bobby Hurley added seven transfers, but not a single one was deemed a top-100 player in the transfer portal by ESPN.
The early returns were not promising. ASU managed just 55 points in a season-opening win over Idaho State (55-48) as 18-point home favorites. The teams showed more chemistry last time out, earning an 81-74 win over Santa Clara as 5.5-point neutral-court underdogs.
Milwaukee transfer BJ Freeman leads the team in scoring so far, averaging 14.5 PPG while freshman Joson Sanon – the #23 recruit in the nation this year – is second at 12.0 PPG.
Hurley will be hoping for more offensive production from freshman center Jayden Quaintance (the #17 recruit), who’s put up just 3.5 PPG on 22.2% shooting in 25.5 MPG through his first two games.
Arizona State vs Gonzaga Prediction
The Sun Devils are going to be a better team than last year. Their offense took big steps forward last time out against a pretty-darn-good Santa Clara team.
ASU plays at a middling pace (159th out of 364 DI teams) and bettors can expect Gonzaga to dictate the tempo on their home court.
The Zags flew over the total against Baylor (164 points against a total of 157.5) and I expect today’s game against the Sun Devils to do the same. I’m not prepared to lay 22.5 points with the Zags, though I do expect an easy Gonzaga victory. The over is going to be my only play on this matchup.
ASU vs GONZ pick: over 157.5 (-105)
