With a lackluster conference schedule, there aren't enough ways to try to hash out Gonzaga's standing among the best, but I still feel that the compared losses shouldn't be ignored, along with their non-con wins against K-State and OK-State. We'll have to wait for the tournament for the true answer. If Gonzaga misses the Elite Eight, maybe even the Final Four, then it'll be a failure. I feel that they are definitely a Top 5 team. My main point was that the chart showed a different story than disappointment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1566606152366187003.post-40083107972887417512013-03-07T00:01:37.148-05:002013-03-07T00:01:37.148-05:00Seriously Doug, are you really comparing the merit...Seriously Doug, are you really comparing the merits of a Big 10 schedule against a WCC? Funny you don't mention sweeping Michigan State, possibly sweeping Michigan, splitting w OSU, beating a then #8 Minnesota, and spanking the hell out of UNC.

But still, judging a team on the year before, much less nearly two decades ago is a mistake. All that matters is this year. Gonzaga looks for real.

It wasn't in '03 against Arizona (which was a much stronger team, and a Zag win would've been an upset).<br /><br />It was in '06 against UCLA, when Gonzaga choked away a big second half lead and, after UCLA went up by 1 with a few seconds left and Gonzaga still had a chance to take the final shot, that's when Morrison went to pieces and didn't move while in tears.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
