No suprise in beat down of Seton Hall
In his post-game commentary, columnist John Blanchette/SR says everyone should have seen the Gonzaga beat down of Seton Hall coming:
How did anyone not see this coming? It’s the dance, right? Gonzaga’s in it, yes? Of course yes. It was the first round, right? And the last time the Bulldogs didn’t survive the first round it took Stephen Curry and a trip across the country into the opponent’s backyard to make it happen. And the opponent was one of those Big East/Big Ten/Big 12/Big Deal schools the conference tournament champs, no less – with muscles on top of their muscles? And the double-digit seed thing – did that get mentioned? If you knew all that, you know the rest – the Zags are matriculating into the class of 32 in the NCAA basketball tournament by virtue of a 68-52 takedown of sixth-seeded Seton Hall in a gruesome beauty at the Pepsi Center. Hey, this wasn’t survive and advance. This was a snuffing. More here.
Question: Are you surprised that this Gonzaga team is still dancing?
