Two powerhouse college basketball teams, Gonzaga Bulldogs (3-0) and San Diego State Aztecs (2-0), are set to face off on Monday night. Despite their impressive records, they're approaching this game from different perspectives. Gonzaga, ranked fourth, has been on a roll, crushing top teams like Baylor (101-63). Meanwhile, San Diego State is hoping for a repeat of last year's upset over Gonzaga, when they won 84-74 in Spokane. Both teams have talented players, but Gonzaga's Khalif Battle and Braden Huff have been shooting stars so far. The game kicks off at 10 p. m. ET on CBS Sports Network, with Gonzaga favored by 11. 5 points and an over/under of 151 points.

While San Diego State aims to maintain their home winning streak (19-1 in their last 20 games), Gonzaga is looking to extend their road winning streak. The Aztecs may have sophomore guard Miles Byrd back, who missed last week's game due to an ankle injury. Both teams have their challenges: Gonzaga's spread record against Mountain West opponents is poor (3-9), and San Diego State faces a larger point spread this year.
