How far do they go in the Big Dance?

How far do they go in the Big Dance?

Depends on their bracket.

I do know that, bracket permitting, UW will PWN them in the Pac-10 tourney though.

Brandon Roy, Pac-10 Player of the Year, baby!

[KowboyKoop]

Pac 10 = sucks.

[lvpro]

Pac 10 = sucks.

University of Washington = PWNs.

Brandon Roy is easily a top 5 player in the country.

[Hobbes]

I don't think they get past the 2nd round.

[ChrisOfSpades]

their defense could easily get them to the sweet 16. anything beyond that woudl be a pleasant surprise.

I still think one of the coolest things in sports history was the year UCLA won the NCAA title despite the fact that they couldn't beat their own freshman team which was led by a guy named Lew Alcinder

[lvpro]

he is also fulltime employed trying to pack morrisons jock.

We'll see who's a better pro.

I'm not saying Adam Morrison's a bad player, because he's not. He's an excellent player.

I just hate Gonzaga, and therefore hate him.

Plus I think it's crap that they're ranked so high, and they can BARELY beat teams like San Francisco and Loyola-Marymount.

They'll be lucky to make it to the 2nd round of the tourney.

[pckt10s]

79-47 UCLA... they will roll over Arizona tomorrow in the semis than Washington... if Washington makes it to the finals of course...

You're just trying to bait me into a UCLA/UW debate, aren't you pckts?

Since WSU is out, UW is going to the finals. Somehow, we got swept by Washington State this year, even though they're the worst team in the Pac 10.

Adam Morrison is gonna be a GREAT pro. Kid can flat out ball. He is ALWAYS making the big play.

Also...are they a little overrated? Probably...but to say they can barely beat teams in their conference?? So what??? Teams ALWAYS play close games against weaker teams in their conference...it happens to everyone. Duke just lost to Florida St. UConn just lost to Syracuse. So??? Last I checked..the Zags were UNDEFEATED in their conference...so who cares if they didn't blow every team out?? They have only lost three games, a two point loss to #3 UConn, a close loss at #19 Washington, and a loss to #4 Memphis. They have beaten a lot of "bigger name schools" in their non-conference schedule and probably deserve a #2 seed. Whatever seed they get though, to say that they will be "lucky" to make it to the 2nd round of the NCAA tourney is just dumb.

ucla will surely get past the 2nd rd and be sweet 16 bound, there first two games are basically home games, they will be playing in san diego. I cant wait for the big dance

u-c-lllllllll-a ucla fight fight fight

How far do they go in the Big Dance?

I like UCLA to be a 5 seed and either lose v a 12 or lose the next game.. GO ILLINOIS

they win out in the pac 10 they'll be a 2 or 3... especially if they beat UW... they are pretty much as healthiest has they have been all year... but seriously, elite 8....

I still say Brandon Roy is gonna be a better pro than Adam Morrison. Roy is in the top 10 in 8 different statistical categories in the Pac-10 (as of last week), and was far and away the Pac-10 player of the year.

Outside of points per game, Roy and Morrison were comparable in every category, and Roy plays in a better conference, with tougher competition. Put Morrison on a decent team (i.e. any team with more than ONE offensive weapon) and his PPG probably drop to maybe 23 or 25. Still very good, because he's a great player.

I'm just saying, the Zags have played a cake schedule this year, with the exception of wins against #20 Maryland and #12 Michigan State. Gonzaga has been barely beating WEAK teams for the past 3 months. That's not exactly the best primer for the tournament against the best teams in college basketball.

I think I made a typo in my first post though. I wouldn't be surprised to see them get through the first round. I WOULD be surprised to see them in the Sweet 16.

Guess I was COMPLETELY wrong about this. Ooooops.

PAC 10 Tourney champs, prolly a 2 seed with UNC losing...

[kobe2odom8]

little surprised ucla got a 2 seed, very happy though. PLay the winner of marquette alabama. Should be good times, surprised that gonzaga got a 3 and we got a 2

not really... with UNC losing they locked it up... surprised to see prolly the lesser of the 1's in the same brackett... Memphis... UCLA did lose to them early in the year but while pretty banged up... should be an interesting rematch hopefully...
