When #1 rolls into Provo...

Post by TulaneVandyRiceCoug »

Does BYU basketball have a shot at history in upsetting #1 Gonzaga?

No. BYU basketball this season, sadly has underperformed. While Gonzaga has out-performed. The game should be interesting - for a while. In the end, Gonzaga's victory will humble the Cougs. I wish we were more competitive.

Highly doubtful. Gonzaga crushed SMC and we couldn't even hang with SMC.

I would have thought losses to SCU and SD sufficient for humbling the team, but I suppose not. Perhaps a loss to Gonzaga will make the team and staff hungry.

Yes, we have a shot. This team is much better at home than on the road. Rose has been competitive vs. Gonzaga in the past. I'm predicting that Gonzaga will win, but it isn't completely far fetched that we could make it happen.

I just hope we can hang with them and make it interesting. Even coming close to a close game would give me warm fuzzies.

Been a tough year for you folks....don't think it's going to get better on Thursday....Defense travels...been a Zag fan since 95....this is the most well rounded talented Zag TEAM I've ever seen....Williams-Goss does not get the press he deserves....he may be the best guard in the country....unflappable.....and Karnowski has been a wall in the middle....the top 8 of this TEAM will stand up to any 8 in the country....ranking doesn't mean a thing to these Zags....they're focused with all eyes and thoughts on BYU.....it's the Cougars that are in the bulls-eye not the Zags....Zags have one thing in mind....winning...anybody can be beat but to beat this Zags TEAM is going to take a supreme effort....don't think your fellas can bring that for 40 minutes....if they do they have a chance to make history....hope for a good game ...no injuries to all..

Go!! Zags!!!

Zags are a great team, at the start of the year I actually thought they might be a little down from some of the early games I watched them play, but they are one of the best coached teams in the country, if not the very best. It's a pleasure being in the same conference as them.
