Gonzaga's entire resume is better though. They're close, but Gonzaga looks like the better team right now.
I think they’re both top 15ish teams, gonzaga may be slightly better but having two teams in the northwest that are good is exciting for me.
Winning against such a highly ranked team on their home court where they are dominant.....is a HUGE win for the Ducks.
I thought Ducks looked better; they just had a terrible spell in second half where they couldn't hit an open shot. Soon they will have that 5 star 7 footer joining them and with Altman's coaching they will just keep getting better.
I think I actually like watching the Ducks play more than the Blazers. Their offense is not that pleasing (although I like it better than the last couple years) but their intense defense, usually great rotations, and just their defensive instincts; they seem to know when a guy is making a threatening move and they just instantly swarm to him.
61?...That's not too old and the guy looks like he's in excellent shape too. You may be right in that he wont make the jump, but I think he'd be a solid NBA coach.
Thats actually generally my thoughts on College basketball, the offenses are some of the ugliest things in the history of earth, but they play every minute with so much passion defensively its fun to watch. I rarely see college games where I think a team or player just isnt trying on defense.
