Bet on Santa Clara to defeat Gonzaga at home as +6.5 underdogs in the matchup
Tonight's Game: Gonzaga vs Santa Clara - The Unlikely Underdog Bet
SANTA CLARA, Calif. - The Gonzaga Bulldogs, sporting a 6.5-point edge tonight against the Santa Clara Broncos, might want to watch their backs. Here's why:
First off, the beloved Bulldogs have a less-than-stellar ATS (Against the Spread) record of 11-18 this season when they're favored at legal sports betting sites. On the road, it's even worse, with a mere 50% success rate (4-4).
But hold up! Don't count Santa Clara out just yet. The Broncos have been on a roll lately, with a scorching-hot 6-game winning streak where they've covered the spread set by legal CBB betting sites. In their last six games, the Broncos have proven to be a shrewd pick, especially as underdogs.
When playing as the underdog in the 2022-2023 season, Santa Clara sported a respectable 5-3 record against the spread. And worry not about the home court advantage; they've only lost 3 of their 14 games played at home.
Where to Bet on Santa Clara vs Gonzaga
Wondering where you can place your bets in California or Washington? Let's take a look.
If you're a California resident, Bovada is your best bet for college basketball wagering. Inside Washington, sports betting regulations can be a bit tricky. Some online sportsbook apps are partnered with tribal casinos that require you to physically be on the property to place a bet. However, these sportsbooks do not allow any betting on in-state college teams. As an alternative option, Bovada accepts players from Washington in 2025 and has no CBB betting restrictions.
