Just one of those teams I’ve never liked for no particular reason.

Also we’ll never hear the end it if they go undefeated.

Ready to hear someone other than IU brag about this.

I truly was a great basketball game.  Probably the best tournament game since MU/Butler 2013.

I love the way Jaquez plays for UCLA. An old school hard nosed player. I don't know if he has pro potential, but he sure is an effective college level player.

Agreed.  Love that guy.  We need a player with his overall skill-set and grit.

I was actually thinking the opposite. I think tonight‘s game scared Gonzaga enough that they come out locked and loaded on Monday.

Baylor is capable of going off from distance.  On the other hand they probably don't have an answer for Timmie.

Haha come on. There have been plenty of NCAA Tournament games that have been better than MU/Butler 2013.

Both Baylor and the Zags want to run. I think Gonzaga is better in that environment. But we will see. Hopefully a classic.

Were we really close on Suggs?

If so, what an intelligent kid to avoid Wojo and wind up playing for an NC.

The one that pops in my head was Nova beating UNC in the 2016 championship game after Paige tied it and then Jenkins won it at the buzzer.

Timme gets away with taunting a ton. And that Suggs block was a foul - he got all hand on that one.

I was thinking the Florida over Whisky game a few years ago.   You know the  Chiozza play where he zoomed by Nigel Hayes and some ghost took out Trice.  The fact that it happened after Shoewalter's antics made the game even more enjoyable.

True but Baylor could be better defensively?

Reasonable point.

Maybe for the same reason people keep overlooking the fact that Gonzaga hasn’t had to play anybody of note for months.

They played everyone they possibly could all season. Tried to play Baylor twice. Tried to schedule Villanova in the middle of conference play. This is only the second team that's stayed within single digits of them.

So if you look at the preseason rankings, they tried to play 2 & 3. They beat 4, 5, & 6 by double digits. Also scheduled & beat 15. What more are they supposed to do?

The arguments against Gonzaga’s worth are old and tired.  What they’ve accomplished in the last 20 plus years is amazing.  Non-power conference team with a limited budget and limited local talent winning big like they are is simply amazing.

Unbelievable game! An all-timer, reminiscent of the 1992 East Regional Final between Duke and Kentucky.

I can still remember watching Laettner hit the game winner, and I'll probably have similar memories of Suggs hitting his.  A historic sports moment.
