An automatic bid to the 2025 NCAA Tournament is on the line Tuesday night as Gonzaga and Saint Mary's square off in the West Coast Conference tournament championship game for the fourth consecutive postseason.

No two teams in college basketball have gone head-to-head more over the last decade than the Zags and Gaels — they've squared off 28 times during that span and have met in the conference tournament in 13 of the past 15 seasons.

Gonzaga has won 18 of the 22 head-to-head meetings in the conference tournament, though Saint Mary's has had the advantage as of late. The Gaels have won four of the last five matchups, including the last two as the betting underdog. Saint Mary's came away victorious, 62-58, on Feb. 1 in Moraga, California, before handing Gonzaga a rare loss on its home court in a 74-67 final from the McCarthey Athletic Center on Feb. 22.

The Zags are set to appear in their 28th consecutive conference title game, an NCAA record, after taking down San Francisco, 85-76, in the semifinal round on Monday. Graham Ike's 27 points and 10 rebounds led the way while Khalif Battle added 21 points and four rebounds. Ryan Nembhard added eight points and eight assists.

The Gaels advanced to their fourth consecutive WCC title game following a 74-59 win over Pepperdine on Monday. Saint Mary's dominated the glass with a 45-22 advantage over the Waves on the boards. Paulius Murauskas finished with 15 points and 10 rebounds, while Augustas Marciulionis added 15 points and five assists.

Gonzaga vs. Saint Mary's Prediction and Pick

The Gaels have had the Bulldogs' number as of late, winning four of the previous five meetings and sweeping the regular season series for the first time since 2015-16. Beating a Mark Few-coached team three times in a single season would be a different feat entirely, though. If Gonzaga can knock down timely 3s — it went 7-of-31 from outside the arc in the previous two meetings — and keep Saint Mary's contained on the boards, the Bulldogs should leave Orleans Arena as WCC champions.

PICK: Gonzaga OVER 70.5 team total points (-120 odds via FanDuel Sportsbook).
