Wouldn't it be swell if the Gonzaga Bulldogs, the unlikely 2015-16 version, reached the Sweet 16 this year? Better Zag teams on paper didn't go that far. Yet, the way the Zags played gives diehard fans hope that the run won't end tonight with Utah....
Gonzaga's Kyle Wiltjer drives on Utah's Kyle Kuzma in the first half at the Pepsi Center tonight in Denver, Colo. Again, the Zags used stifling defense to stomp Utah 82-59 and advance to the Sweet 16 in Chicago, Ill., next weekend.
