    Zags could be the 1st ever #1 seed to lose

    After watching BYU get throttled tonight. What a sad conference btw. Zags could absolutely lose.

    I feel like Field to win West Region -185 against Gonzaga is the steal of a lifetime. Kornet will be a very bad matchup for Gonzaga if they play Vandy.

    Because a deflated BYU lost in the NIT just after one of their key players was announced done for the season?

    it is a sad conference, but that's also why Gonzaga completely plowed through everybody minus the one loss to BYU

    If these guys want to go off the nit the pac12 will be out the first weekend.

    Arlington is a good team who had some horrible losses and was fired up for the nit.

    I do agree with this, Vandy would be a tricky game as would wvu.

    Gonzaga will not lose first round. That's absurd. I am a huge BYU fan and unloaded on UT Arlington +5.5. That was my biggest bet all year. BYU was super unmotivated for that game. Gonzaga won't win it all but will advance at least to Elite Eight

    To lose 1st round? There's a reason why they're 22 point favorites. This team is a legit 1 or 2 seed

    I don't think Gonzaga will lose here, and I don't put much stock in NIT results. However, South Dakota St plays a style that is conducive to pulling an upset. They will jack a ton of threes, and they typically get to the free throw line a lot. A David can slay a Goliath with that style if shots fall.

    Gonzaga has been to tourney something like 19 straight years. Tournament tested, players stay yada yada, this team isn't losing first round.

    Zags beat SMC 3 times and stopped Jock Landale - a Kareem Abdul Jabbar award finalist. South Dakota State is led by Mike Daum down low. While Daum has a different skillset, zags can easily shut him down too. Zags clog the interior but also have guys like Collins that can guard stretch 4/5 opponents out to the 3pt line. Without Daum playing his best game, SDSU gets blown out.
