Gonzaga opens the 2026 NCAA Tournament on Thursday night in Portland, and the No. 14 seed waiting for them has had a season worth knowing about before tipoff. Kennesaw State arrives as the Conference USA champion, though the road to that title ran through just about everything a basketball program can face in a single […]

Gonzaga took care of business on Monday night, and now their attention turns to their final opponent before Selection Sunday next week. The Bulldogs advance to the championship once again with a 65-56 win over Oregon State in the semifinal round, a result that sends Mark Few’s group back to the conference title game for […]

It’s been a weird week for Oregon State basketball. Earlier in the week, athletic director Scott Barnes informed head coach–and Ferris High School graduate–Wayne Tinkle that his tenure in Corvallis will end after the season, presenting Tinkle with the choice: either step aside immediately or coach his team through whatever remained of the year. Tinkle […]
Loved every aspect of this film by director David Check. Touching almost every corner of growth from this small Jesuit institution in the Pacific Northwest, turned college basketball powerhouse over the past quarter century. From John Stockton in the Martin Centre, Dan Fitzgerald bringing in Dan Monson and Mark Few to take over the reins, […]
Gonzaga or Saint Mary’s? That’s typically the question we ask entering this tournament. But Santa Clara has established itself as a viable competitor. And, hey, maybe Oregon State will turn it on and give Wayne Tinkle his much-deserved swan song. Let’s take a quick, 30,000-foot look at all 12 West Coast Conference squads. Gonzaga (1) […]
The most significant change at the top of the final bracket projection of the regular season was a swap on the 3 and 4 lines, with idle Gonzaga, who next plays in the WCC semifinals on Monday night, swapping places with Texas Tech, who lost at home to TCU on Tuesday and next visits a […]

Gonzaga survived Pacific 71-62 on Saturday night in the Kennel, leaning once again on Graham Ike and a timely bench performance from Davis Fogle. And survived is the key word, here. Ike finished with another 20-point night, continuing a dominant conference stretch, while Fogle poured in 18 points off the bench in 28 minutes, his […]

Gonzaga heads to San Francisco on Wednesday night for an 8:00 PM PST tip at Chase Center, with ESPN2 carrying the broadcast. The Zags now hold first place in the WCC and sit at No. 11 in the AP Poll after a narrow win over Santa Clara over the weekend. San Francisco enters at 7-8 […]
Saint Louis, Miami (OH), Utah St. and Saint Mary’s remained 1-4 in this week’s Men’s Other Top 25. San Diego St. and VCU each moved up one spot as Santa Clara slid four places following its loss to Gonzaga. New Mexico rejoined the top 10 and came in at No. 7. Belmont moved up one […]
Greetings, BBN! The 2025-2026 Kentucky Wildcats season is 24 games in, which means it’s just seven games to go before SEC Tournament week and Selection Sunday. When UK dropped to 5-4 after taking a pounding from Gonzaga, and when they started SEC play 0-2 against Alabama and Missouri, their bracket status seemed very shaky and […]

WSU put out an embarrassing effort Tuesday night in Spokane, falling 83-53. The 53 points scored were the Cougs’ lowest scoring output of the season. Three early turnovers had the Cougs down 12-6 four minutes in, but Ri Vavers nailed a three and Morton made three free throws to keep the game in reach. A […]
After a dog-faced ugly loss to the Portland Pilots earlier in the week, the question on every fan’s mind was how the Zags (and coach Mark Few) would respond. Would they rally? Play out of their absolute minds? Leave with a convincing win? Or would the loss shell-shock them so thoroughly that they’d cough up […]
On Wednesday night, Gonzaga did this … As a result, the Bulldogs slipped down to the 3 line, with Houston replacing them as a 2. While I did shuffle things around a bit after analyzing each team’s results-based and predictive metrics a bit more closely, this was the only seed line change among the top […]
One, if not the biggest upset in this 2025-26 college basketball season, occurred at the Chiles Center on Feb. 4, 2026. Definitely the most in the West Coast Conference’s history over the last 30 years. On the first leg of the road trip through the state of Oregon, the hangover for the No. 6 Gonzaga […]
