[QUOTE="EyeoftheIllini, post: 1597161, member: 623415"] I agree with your first sentence and last sentences, but make no mistake Gonzaga is a very good team. They beat Kansas, W. Va, Iowa and VA on neutral courts. And not like their lack of conference competition has left them shocked in recent history. In last 5 NCAAs, they have a runner up, 2 Elite Eight and 2 Sweet 16 finishes, and one of those S-16 finishes was as an 11 seed. I’d prefer to have Baylor on the other side of the bracket from Illinois, but certainly wouldn’t overlook Gonzaga. Yes, their conference isn’t very good, but I believe the closest win they’ve had in conference was an 11 point victory. So they’re taking care of business. [/QUOTE]
