Bulldogs vs Boilermakers

A lot of attention will be down low as Gonzaga’s big men including Drew Timme and Efton Reid III face Purdue's 7'4" center Zach Edey. Reid has not had a lot of playing time early in the season, so it will be interesting to see how Mark Few uses him in this game.

This game will be played at the Moda Center, where Gonzaga is 5-1 all time, including two wins in last season’s NCAA Tournament.
