Gonzaga basketball did to UCLA what UCLA FB did to USC...very similar in terms of motivation...
UCLA Bb wanted revenge, USC FB wanted to salvage season with a win in the rivalry game.
However, both couldn’t overcome the fact that other team was more talented and the fact that these types of games ALWAYS mean more to them.

I know. I just got done watching replays of all the Vikings SB wins on ESPN classic. Hours and hours of solid entertainment))
Seriously though. Favre really f'd up that one year 2009. Vikings had the best team in the NFL and it wasn't close. They had like 500 yards on the Saints in the NFCCG but Favre went gunslinger. Hope they get 1 at some point
First time seeing Zags and that skinny kid. He reminds me of a white Ralph Sampson. Crazy skills and agility for 7' freshman

Zags are really good. Their conference is also improved. I think they will take a loss at some point and not have the burden of last March.
Ucla remember barely made the tournament. They needed a miracle comeback to beat state. Then they got hot, caught a break playing Abilene Christian in round 2. 7 point dog should never happen when you are number 2, especially on a neutral court. They are probably about really 15th-20th.
best food on earth ..bone in rib eye and a good vino...enjoy

Cronin is a good defensive coach but his offenses are a disgrace, all UCLA does is play 1 on 1 basketball. This game was all about coaching. Few is on a different level. Talentwise there is no difference between the teams.

morino you have said alot of crazy stuff but this might take the cake.. if you watched last nights game and said there was no skill difference you have to be smokin somethin lol and im not talking about weed.
drew timme is probably one of the best forwards in the country.. holmgren is a 1st rounder in the draft. & give me nembhard over any guard UCLA has. who does UCLA have that even meets even half of these accolades? yes UCLA was out coached but there was a big skill gap all over the court in almost every position.

He’s bald, white, and fukks black chicks. Dude will always be a winner in my book.
Talent wise not the same. Zags have two potential player of the year candidates Bruins have none. Juzang a nice piece but he’s no Timme or Holmgren.
