What to make of Gonzaga and the West Region (The Slipper Still Fits)

Zags' potential dancing partners are facing their own late season adversity.

Then the Bruins lost Jaylen Clark for the rest of the season with an achilles injury. For Gonzaga to succeed against a Huskies team ranked in the top 20 in both offense and defense they’ll need Drew Timme and company to pin fouls on the hack-heavy team (ranked eight in KenPom for highest opponent free throw rate). What makes the region particularly appealing for the Zags is the vulnerability of the two top seeds. Kansas played a complete, competent season as a top-10 team every week of the AP poll. We’ll have a more thorough breakdown of GCU later in the week. The Antelopes rank 23rd in the country for 3-point shooting.

But Gonzaga’s offense will be too much for Grand Canyon to stop, and they should cover the spread easily. Gonzaga’s offense is run smoothly, and every player on the court plays unselfishly. In fact, in 19 of the 36 years since the tournament expanded, the lower seed won this matchup. Despite the Lopes giving up fewer points per game on the year, KenPom lists them as 196 in defensive efficiency. In the WAC Tournament against Seattle, McGlothan went off for a 35-point, 10-rebound performance. The Antelopes struggled a bit in the middle part of the season in the Western Athletic Conference. The only NCAA Tournament team that Grand Canyon played was Nevada, and they lost by double digits. But a strong end of the season and conference tournament secured their spot in the field of 64. He averaged 15.1 points on the year and is getting hot at the right time. The lower seed in this matchup wins just 15.3% of the time, but anything can happen in March. In this article, we preview the 3-seeded Gonzaga Bulldogs and the 14-seeded Grand Canyon Antelopes. The Bulldogs also possess a 1.57 assist/turnover ratio, which ranks ninth nationally.

Just Pick Gonzaga Again. No, Really! (Slate Magazine)

Their juggernaut teams couldn't win it all, but maybe a squad that is merely excellent can.

1 in adjusted offensive efficiency, the position they held three years in a row before plummeting all the way to No. That’s not to say Gonzaga is exactly the same. (That rate is 303rd nationally, per Pomeroy.) But the Zags drill them when they take them, to a shiny 38.4 percent tune as a team. [beat them in late February](https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/game/_/gameId/401470467), then destroyed them, 77–51, [in the WCC tournament final](https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/game/_/gameId/401514402) on March 7. [made him the all-time leading scorer](https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/35808989/gonzaga-adds-another-wcc-title-drew-timme-sets-scoring-record) in a program with lots of prolific scorers. This year, Gonzaga is not the most elite team in college basketball, but one of those that is playing its best ball at what analysts would call “the right time.” Gonzaga’s juggernaut teams couldn’t win it all, but maybe a team that is merely excellent can. Gonzaga had started the year third in Pomeroy’s ratings before falling as low as 18 in late January. On the eve of the 2022 NCAA tournament, the case for Gonzaga was simple again. This time around, the Bulldogs approach March Madness from a different angle than the one they took They weren’t the all-time team of 2021, but for a second year in a row, 1 overall seed in the tournament for the second year in a row. They looked like the best team in the history of men’s college basketball and could claim that mantle if they only finished the job.
