Gonzaga is coming off another impressive season, where they finished with a 28-4 record and advanced to the national championship game. Baylor also had a strong season, going 27-7 and reaching the Elite Eight.

Both teams return several key players from last season, including Gonzaga's Drew Timme and Baylor's Adam Flagler. This matchup is sure to be a close one, as both teams are ranked in the top 10 in the preseason polls.

This is a tough game to pick, as both teams are very talented. However, Gonzaga has a slight edge in experience, as they have been to the national championship game in two of the last three seasons.
