Florida State Seminoles vs. Gonzaga Bulldogs Prediction 03/22/2018
Recency bias is the narrative that is fueling this market. Gonzaga, after all, is the more accomplished team in this tournament, albeit they played for a national championship here just last year. This alone enchants many takers to back the Bulldogs be that Florida State is not really a basketball school. However, the Seminoles have proven otherwise. As a whole, Florida State plays in a tougher conference and is more battle-tested than Gonzaga who simply has its way in the lowly West Coast Conference. Florida State also knocked off a team that was expected to make a deep run into this competition. Gonzaga is also likely to do the same here. The Noles, on the other hand, has already exceeded expectation. This is a quintessential scenario where the hunter becomes "the hunted," and we will take advantage of the points.

Take Florida State +5.5 (KF)
