Gonzaga is very very good. But when your schedule isn't even top 100
you wonder how good. it's very difficult to get through a conference schedule like the Big 10's this year

Here's how much that SOS helped Iowa when they played Gonzaga.

Played the #1 team twice. Gonzaga couldn’t do that

i think the correct number is #83 unless I'm reading this thing wrong

If Alabama played 12 games vs the Sun Belt and had a #130 SOS would you be afraid that they weren't good?

Maybe in past years. Gonzaga had the toughest OOC in the country this year.

They beat Iowa, Kansas and West Virginia and Virginia. They were scheduled

Strength of schedule in ever sport is a misnomer
BYU '80
2/28/21 3:13pm
And the P5 conferences get over-rated. Yes, their depth is better

In basketball? sure.

Wasn't Gonzaga beating Iowa by 20+ before Iowa made the score look respectable?

So like there's this thing called the Power 5, and it's like bled over to hoops.

This is the reason why they blow it every year in March.

No kidding. Their March Madness results over the past 5 years only match the

Didn't they make it to a Final Game?

You're right, Gonzaga's been better than the entire PAC12 in MM.
ldssdl
2/28/21 2:59pm
Right?! Their worst NCAA performance in the last 5 seasons (w/ an NCAA) is a Sweet 16.

Oh ok I misunderstood. I thought you were arguing that they were good and belonged with teams like Ohio state, Florida,
Virginia Ute
2/28/21 2:47pm
Lol at you citing Virginia, literally the only #1 seed to ever lose to a #16
ldssdl
2/28/21 2:58pm
Oh I’m sorry I thought those teams all won championships.
Virginia Ute
2/28/21 3:00pm
Your original comment was on blowing it in MM, not winning championships.
ldssdl
2/28/21 3:05pm
Virginia won a championship. Baaaad comparison.
Virginia Ute
4/5/21 8:56pm
Hmmm... let's see how the six teams you listed have done the last 5 seasons.
SpiffCoug
2/28/21 3:18pm
As far as championships go they’re not. Isn’t that what matters?
Virginia Ute
2/28/21 3:27pm
No. College basketball programs celebrate more than just championships. They hang banners from the rafters for many of

2/28/21 5:51pm
Heck, a certain program even threw a parade for losing in the championship game

Gonzaga chokes in MM. sorry.
Virginia Ute
2/28/21 6:27pm
Is it choking? Or is the WCC not the best measurement of a team?

2/28/21 6:33pm
What a stupid standard.
SpiffCoug
2/28/21 8:06pm
I mean if you wanna be considered among the best, that’s the standard. Sorry.
Virginia Ute
2/28/21 9:01pm
Wow. So now you don’t even consider Gonzaga among the best programs in the country?
SpiffCoug
3/2/21 7:30pm
Not until they win it all. Nope
Virginia Ute
3/2/21 7:38pm
Good to know that's your standard. I'll apply it to our respective FB programs.

3/2/21 9:00pm
Good. If I ever start arguing that Utah belongs with Bama and Ohio State and LSU then sure bring that up.
Virginia Ute
3/2/21 9:30pm
Well, you did mention tOSU in the same sentence as Villanova and Virginia,

Hmmm that’s still one more than Zags. Probably before Gonzaga even had
Virginia Ute

Yeah they never win. That’s my point.
Virginia Ute
2/28/21 2:40pm
And my point is that yours is ridiculous.
ldssdl
2/28/21 2:56pm
Oh I’m sorry I thought the point for teams like that who are the 1 seed was to win the tournament.
Virginia Ute
2/28/21 2:57pm
You realize there are actually 4 number 1 seeds? Three of them will lose every
ldssdl
2/28/21 3:00pm
Blow it means lost. Gonzaga has lost every single time they’ve been in March madness. Every time.
