The Portland State Vikings and Gonzaga Bulldogs meet Thursday in college basketball action at the Veterans Memorial Coliseum. The Portland State Vikings look to get above a .500 record. The Gonzaga Bulldogs look for their fourth win. 

The Portland State Vikings are averaging 88.5 points on 44.4 percent shooting and allowing 71.8 points on 37.4 percent shooting. Jorell Saterfield is averaging 17.5 points and 7 rebounds, while Cameron Parker is averaging 14 points and 2.8 rebounds.

Drew Timme is averaging 21 points and 2.5 assists, while Julian Strawther is averaging 15.5 points and 8.5 rebounds.

The Gonzaga Bulldogs are allowing 28.8 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 35.3 rebounds per game.

The Portland State Vikings have had issues getting strops through 4 games, and that’s not ideal when going up against Goznaga. The Gonzaga Bulldogs are far and away the more talented team, and they’re firing on all cylinders offensively. And while this game is in Oregon, Gonzaga fans travel well, and that shouldn’t be any different here. I just don’t see Portland State getting enough stops to keep this game competitive. Thick line, but I’ll lay the points with the Gonzaga Bulldogs.
