Thanks everybody. Appreciate the insight. Still trying to decide who to pull for. Thinking I just may have to pull for the ?little guy? university wise, Gonzaga. Tomorrow?s the day, then next weekend, The Masters. Yay! This year is flying.
Everyone have a very nice Easter!

I'd take those 10 points. I think Baylor outright

Hard to believe UCLA was only an 11 seed.
Yeah and UCLA was the play in game too. That will be a trivia question one day.

She's doing a cover of Blondie's "Heart of Glass" at the moment - she's not quite as good as Blondie.
Can 11 UCLA beat 1 Gonzaga? I doubt it, but it would be a huge upset.
Not a big Miley fan but she is pretty good. It wasn't as bad a scene as I thought it would be either.

True, in the absence of UK, UNC, Duke, Kansas where else does the media cling to?

Im sure if CBH had Timmie at the 5 and Suggs at the 2 our offense would look a bit different...
But any chance to throw a CBH sucks take in is about par for the course.

So what if Nantz and the boys give a little more love to the Zags.. they are in fact undefeated and on the cusp of doing something that hasn’t been done in almost 40 years..
Much better than Vitale giving hand jobs to Duke, Kansas, Kentucky, UNC, Mich State.. and then swallowing Coach K
What a freshening final four
Zags, UCLA, Houston, Baylor.
Too bad the college football playoffs aren’t as entertaining

Agree.. it’s the greatest 3-4 weeks in sports period.
March madness , baseball opening day and week and The Masters..

It wouldn't matter because with Howland it's lather, rinse, repeat.......The more things change, the more they stay the same.......

Whew ... Baylor defense was like somebody stomped on a fire ant hill ... they were everywhere!
Hopefully Zags can recover.

They done.

No one can take that west coast conference championship from them though.

Baylor?s defense is unreal. They have been in the Zags ass all night.

The difference in physicality is the difference. It's the reason I called Baylor outright. Gonzaga is a finesse team, and Baylor is just way too tough for them

True. Props to Baylor, for the win. And props to Gonzaga for a great season.
-
Baylors spacing on offense is a thing of beauty, wish we could add some of that to our offense.
-
The main difference was athleticism. Baylor literally just ran iso for the two guards all night and Gonzaga had absolutely no answer for it. They couldn't stay in front of Baylor at any point in the game.

Yep I agree. After 4-5 min, I said this game is over. Once the on ball D broke down is was open shot where ever they wanted it. On other end, same thing - Baylor beat them to their spot every time.
Zags got too much press from OT win and they were also spent (kinda like WBB did with Uconn that year). Zags couldn't beat Baylor this year, plain and simple.
-
Another interesting note. 5 times 1 vs 2 in NC game. #2 has won them all.
