Baylor looks like they want Gonzaga. Yeesh
I’m still gonna stay in the minority I think Baylor gonna give Gonzaga fits
I don’t know. Gonzaga’s offense is otherworldly. Baylor has the speed to rotate defensively and two big bodies to throw at Drew Timme, but idk. I think Timme might eat Baylor alive. I would feel better if Baylor still had Freddie Gillespie. Also going to depend on how the game is called.

Baylor offense is otherworldy today. - - I think Baylors 4 guards gonna give Gonzaga fits the way they pass the ball - don’t think Gonzaga ha seen a defense as good as Baylor’s defense in the tourney - -gonna be a good game. Ya Gonzaga could very easily win BUT I’m sticking with baylor - -they get beat – they get beat but I don’t think they gonna be able to toy with Baylor like they have so far with other teams

Brutal. You hate to see it

Houston getting hammered and the big 12 represented in the championship game really pleases me.

Lets go Bruins!
-
Jaquez, Tyger Campbell and Riley are going to need to score some baskets bc Gonzaga is going to gameplan to take away Juzang

Why do people think The Final Countdown needs to be sung by a woman on quaaludes to make it relevant? Would this epoch is American culture please end? (Miley Cyrus singing American Woman was ironic and bad enough. Stay away from… Yourself? Nevermind brain! Don’t engage!)
-
Ayayay… Ayayi
-
A lead at the first timeout. Nice!
-
Jaquez! These guys came to play.
-
UCLA making Timme play defense is very smart.
-
Cronin is 10000 % right Suggs traveled - but of course it’s Gonzaga
-
UCLA been right there for the 1sr 13 minutes. - -Has to give them a little confidence
-
Again.
@BShark
-
Here come the zebras
-
Wow hot bullshit
-
UCLA getting Gonzaged - -holy crap
-
-
2 points plus foul on jaquez
-
Didn’t think UCLA’s offense was capable of scoring this many in a half against a good team.
-
Timme needs to lose
-
Is there enough lube in the arena for these announcers & Gonzaga
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 hope they dont get rattled. Got a nice balance.
-
UCLA just needs to maintain game plan for the rest of the 1st half - - don’t get sped up, play a really solid game so far
-
Take away Timmes baseline when back to basket every time. Good job Riley.
-
UCLA not doing to bad holding up against 5-8 – UCLA double the fouls, it was Gonzaga with 5 fouls and UCLA had 3. - -NOW Gonzaga has 5 fouls and UCLA 10? - -last 7 fouls against UCLA ? - - things that make you go hmmmmm,
-
eliminate that baseline up and under on him
-

Makes me go “hmmm…UCLA sure has done some dumb fouls”

makes me go hmmm how Gonzaga mugs some people and nothing
-
Officiating has been blatant in this game, and I don’t really care who wins.
-
I mean UCLA has gotten the worse side of the whistle and you’d have to be blind not to see it.
-
UCLA only 7 points short of their total from the E8 win over Michigan. This pace absolutely favors Gonzaga and UCLA is really going to have to muddy the game up in the second half to have a chance and play at a snail’s pace.
-
UCLA is doing a really good job of playing at their pace. They are taking their time in half-court sets and not turning the ball over too much (just 5 for the game so far). Gonzaga hasn’t had a lot of opportunity to get out and run, at least by their standards. Unfortunately for UCLA, Gonzaga is shooting 61% from the floor and 50% from 3. Yet UCLA is only down a point.
-
Think UCLA has played about as well as they can play and now down by 1. - -think it’s gonna catch up with them in the 2nd half Gonzaga probably win. - -Makes me feel even better about Baylor - -seeing when they play against an aggressive attack the rim type team - -a team that competes on the boards and gives Timme something to think about a little different story.
Gonzaga hasn’t been tested in the Tourney tonight has played well -still think Baylor’s 4 Guards - - - Butler - - Teague - - Mayer & Mitchell gonna cause them some problems

I think it might get a little ugly for UCLA in the 2nd half - but a really game plan in the 1st half - - UCLA shot 58% themselves

been pretty bad in favor of Gonzaga
-
I think there’s a good chance both teams come back to earth a little with shooting percentages. If UCLA can just keep playing at their pace and not turn the ball over in the 2nd half then they have a shot.

ya thats the HUGE thing, they have to stick to their game plan – - be patient - - work the clock take advantage of mis matches - don’t get sped up against these guys. Keep the game close into the last 5 minutes, where anyone’s game see how Gonzaga withstands legit pressure. Again they haven’t been challenged until tonight. - -UCLA led for like 18 of the 20 minutes in the 1st half.
The first 6-7 minutes of the 2nd half going to be HUGE for UCLA
-
Is this halftime longer?
-
CBS getting extra ads in? Did they cut out the Duke special? Something is different.
-
I think Gonzaga’s Kispert & Suggs going to find it a little harde rscoring 3’s against Baylor’s defense. Mitchell probably on Kispert maybe Butler on Suggs - gonna be a good game I hope
-
John Beileins next excuse… “i didnt tell the team to stop acting like thugs. I said stop acting like Suggs”
-
UCLA has gotten lucky - -real lucky a couple of times tonight , Gonzaga with a couple of wide - - wide - - open three’s and missed. Kispert missed one , Timme missed one. That doesn’t usually happen had ttime to set their feet just missed that’s not going to happen very often especially with Kispert.
I said the first 6-7 minutes was going to be huge for UCLA they still right there
-
Suggs might take over still.
