There will always be comments about Gonzaga playing in the weak WCC

It’s an impressive run, but also likely aided by inflated seeds that help them

They’ve gotten to the Sweet 16 eight times in a row. But four of those times

Like you said the run is impressive. Not sure their seeding has been inflated.

Duke and UNC have each done it 9 times in a row. And both have a natty

Hard to underachieve when nobody wins as much as you do.

The best team in the nation the last 5 years has 0 titles? Hardly.

Stop. Gonzaga has been consistent. But not one of those teams would trade their

Yep. You’re changing the topic. Clearly you’re done.

Compare that to Duke - always gets high seeds. Doesn’t always make the sweet 16.

You want to give them a trophy for beating 8 or 9 seeds?

No. I want to give them credit for making the Sweet 16 eight years running as a

No animus. Just acknowledging the reality that their unique situation gives them

garyfan

Um, we never beat 8 seeds consistently.

Boring

3/20/23 6:57am

Um, nobody is claiming we’re as good as Gonzaga.

Many don't think they are true #1 or #2 seeds, so the competition should be closer if that is accurate.

3/20/23 9:13am

Haha. The comparison is between Gonzaga and all other teams in the tournament.

garyfan

3/20/23 9:35am

I personally think it is a huge accomplishment. My point being a true #1 vs #16 is a huge gap. But if people think

I think we already know, from their impressive conference record, that Gonzaga

The Gonzaga 11 seed in 2016 was impressive too. They beat a red hot Seton Hall

I agree and am not taking anything away from that year.

garyfan

Would be ironic if they did. Clearly not as strong as some previous teams.

They actually learned how to take it on the chin quite a few times in conf play

Mark Few is an excellent coach. They rarely lose to teams that they should beat.
