Zags, Cougars clash at Kennel
It's been a short, but interesting series between Gonzaga and BYU. The Jimmer-led Cougars bounced GU out of the NCAA Tournament a few years ago. Within months, the Cougars were members of the WCC but they haven't had much luck against the Zags. losing four straight after a 10-point win in Provo in 2012.
The teams collide again tonight and the game probably won't be confused with the GU-USD, possession-by-possession battle on Thursday. BYU is a high-scoring outfit, loaded with quality guards and wings. Gonzaga isn't shy about scoring, but it has been more defensive driven in WCC play. Tip is at 7.
Here's my game preview, and others from Utah here and here.
