GU game should start on time here

GONZAGA

With more than 8 minutes left on the game clock in Louisville's rout of Connecticut, there is no way the GU game will start on time on ESPN, unless the network switches to the basketball game.

Especially not with UConn on. It's ESPN's home team. We'll see.

If not, we'll start our commentary whenver the game starts.

Texas' lone loss this year (the Longhorns are 5-1) came on a neutral court against Michigan State, 63-61. That is the only game Texas has been outrebounded this year. So what's that tell you? The Zags have to clean the glass to have a shot.

They also have to find a way to control Kevin Durant, who can't be allowed to attack in the open floor. He's unstoppable when he has the opportunity to create in free space. But in the half court, he can also step out to 25 feet and nail a 3-pointer.

Just heard that in the state of Washington, they'll be switching us to the basketball game at the tip.

We'll be back. Go ahead and ask any questions you may have or add any comments to what we write.
