I love the 90's: #2 UConn v. #8 Gonzaga preview
Much like Sugar Ray and Enrique Iglesias, the Huskies were riding high in 1999. The game: #2 UConn (9-0) vs. #8 Gonzaga (8-1), "The Battle In Seattle" Where: The arena of the Seattle Storm, and no other teams. When: Today, 4 p.m. TV/Radio:...
2009 Utes rewind
via www2.pictures.gi.zimbio.com 2009 could not have started better for the Utes. Two days after the new year began, Utah dominated their way to what many felt was an improbable win over the Alabama Crimson Tide in the Sugar Bowl. Alabama had spent a good portion of the season atop the polls at...
Deacons stun Zags in Spokane
Wake Forest got huge contributions from its freshmen as the Deacs rallied from a sizable first half deficit to beat Gonzaga 77 to 75. Newcomers C.J. Harris and Ari Stewart made up for a disappointing game by Al-Farouq Aminu by tallying 19 and 17 points, respectively. Stewart nailed all four of...

More on Gonzaga.
IU’s defensive problems this season have been on the interior.

Gonzaga, despite the aforementioned loss of Josh Heytvelt to the devil ‘shrooms, is...

Indiana and Gonzaga, toe to toe.
The numbers are courtesy Ken Pomeroy and Big Ten Wonk. You should know that, because you should be reading those guys anyway. The number in the parentheses is the national rank, with the Pomeroy weighted ranking as the second parenthetical number in the efficiency rankings:EfficiencyPace: Indiana...
Gonzaga again.
IU plays Gonzaga for the second consecutive year in the NCAA Tournament. Last year, the Bulldogs eliminated IU in the second round after IU's first round win over the evil Steve Fisher and San Diego State. Clearly, Gonzaga is not the team they were last season. Adam Morrison is gone. Gonzaga did...
Q&A with The Kennel Report.
I exchanged some questions with The Kennel Report, a Gonzaga blog. My answers to their questions, as well as answers to the same questions by Inside the Hall, are here. Maybe next time I'll proofread a little better, and my answer to the question about defense makes clear that I didn't see the Wake...
