San Francisco went 16-1 on its home floor and owns a win over Saint Mary's. But one of the Dons' two first-team All-WCC performers, senior guard Marcus Williams, is not expected to play in this NIT opener. Williams (15.1 ppg, 4.3 apg, 41.4 percent on 3-pointers) is being held out due to an eligibility issue. He missed the WCC Tournament as well. The Wolverines allowed 42 points in the paint in their 89-82 WAC Tournament final loss to Grand Canyon. San Francisco is a more guard-oriented attack, so I bet the Wolverines to keep this close. They're excited to be in the NIT so motivation won't be an issue.
