March Madness Betting Preview 2025: Saint Mary’s Gaels

• There are +10000 odds on Saint Mary’s to win March Madness.
• Use California sports betting sites to bet on Saint Mary’s in March Madness.

SAN FRANCISCO – One of the biggest betting markets for college basketball in California are the Saint Mary’s Gaels and there will be odds on them all throughout March Madness just like there were in the regular season and in the WCC tournament.

The Gaels are headed for their fourth straight March Madness run and are coming off of their fourth straight season of 26+ wins. As they sit right now, legal sports betting sites have them listed at +10000 odds to win the tournament.

Saint Mary’s has been somewhat mediocre against the spread this season with just a 14-16 record. However, they are the second most dominant team in the West Coast Conference in terms of winning margin which is at 13.4. This also marks the third straight season where they’ve averaged a double-digit winning margin.

Sticking with their dominance, they’ve capped off their season going 17-1 in their last 18 games of the season and have gone 11-7 against the spread in that span as well. They’ve also been favored by -500 odds or more in 11 of those games as well heading into their conference tournament and March Madness.

Leading the way for Saint Mary’s this season has been the Lithuanian duo of Augustas Marciulionis and Paulius Murauskas who are combining for 27.2 ppg, 10.9 rpg, and 7.5 apg. Both have dominated in their all around games as of late. Murauskas has gone for 32+ points+rebounds+assists in three of his last five games while Marciulionis has gone for 27+ PRA in six of his last eight.

Looking back at their March Madness run, while this will be their fourth consecutive tournament appearance, they failed to make it out of the first two rounds in those appearances.
