I'm not entirely sure. They will most likely meet Texas Tech in round 2 and could very well beat them. But can they go on to the elite 8. I'm going to have to say West Virginia and Wake Forest are much better.

Speaking of, Should Wake and West Virginia meet, who takes the victory. I'm leaning toward West Virginia. hard to bet against the Big East in this tournament.

Whoever wins the TT - UCLA game will beat Gonzaga by double digits. In my humble opinion, Gonzaga is the most overrated team in the entire tourney. If they should be so lucky as to meet up with WF or Wash down the road, they will get pummeled. Gonzaga plays no defense and the WCC was far weaker than everybody thinks it is. Turiaf will get into foul trouble, and that will be the end of them.

Gonzo will beat UCLA in the 2nd round - and rather easily at that

your a fool. Morrision is the most underrated cat in College Basketball. Turiaf is a man among boys, and belive it or not there point guard who looks like he is middle school gets the ball in great spots for there scorers. Gonzaga can play the up-tempo game, or can play in the half court. All i know is if they get T Tech in the second round they will kill them, if the get UCLA it might be a little closer than u think, but i have Gonzaga all the way to the Eilte 8, and would not be suprised if they r in St Louis at the end of all this.

Two plays for tommorow
E Kentucky: + 16 1/2 I really like this play. Eastern Kentucky has two guards that shoot the 3 very well, and can match up inside with there size. Im not saying they have the talent that Kentucky have but they will stay in it with there guards and they can keep Hayes down with there size. Hayes and Azubuike r not taller than 6"6 and i think E kentucky keeps this well under the spread. Kentucky by 10-12 points

Pitt-Pacific: under 131 both have terrific inside defense and guard the perimeter very well. Cant see this going over even 120. Pacfic 64 Pitt 55

Beware of the Brtsh Gangstar

Whormoan, this is actually the best defensive team Gonzaga has had. They hold opponents to 41.5% shooting and they POUND the glass with a rebound margin of over +8.

That being said, they will run into trouble once they reach the sweet 16 which I think they will.

Too much experience for UCLA and too much inside for Texas Tech. They will not however be able to handle Chris Paul and the Deamon Deacons and the road will stop there.
