The Bruins played real well against the Bulldogs. What a game. Bulldogs versus Bears will be a great game.

9:20 pm CBS
1 Baylor 27-2
1 Gonzaga 31-0 -4.5

If the Zags pull this off it will go down as one of the greatest feats in college basketball. Undefeated national champs:

1956 San Francisco 29-0
1957 North Carolina 32-0
1964 UCLA 30-0
1967 UCLA 30-0
1972 UCLA 30-0
1973 UCLA 30-0
1976 Indiana 32-0

I think Baylor's gonna get 'em.

It will be like Houston having that epic game with Louisville then going out and losing to NC State.

I tell ya what, there's been some incredible jump shooting in this tournament. You leave some of these guys open and it's going in.

I thought it was a lost art. Been a pleasure to watch.

RE: Countdown to the 2021 National Champions
Once Gonzaga settled down and stopped turning it over they got a ton of layups and got to the foul line a ton. Baylor mostly taking jump shots (they are getting open but they are often off the dribble). Gonzaga's biggest issue one they stopped turning it over was they got killed in the glass. If they do a better job on the defensive glass and Baylor cools off at all this will be a great second half. Baylor will be able to mostly get the shots they want but if they hit 40% of their 3s instead of 60 things will look different.

Baylor has such a unique ability to hit off the dribble three. You never see college teams shoot off the dribble like this.

Gonzaga getting layups and wide open 3s every time down. Can't cut into the lead.

For those of you who don't think transfers non power conferences can play at a high level look at Baylor's roster composition.

I hope Baylor keeps winning so history doesn't drool over Suggs shot like ESPN did this week. There was no pressure on that shot, it was win if it goes in, play some more if not. And he banked it. It was a great game, he looks like a great player, that was not a historic clutch shot.

LOL it was merely a 40 footer at the buzzer to win an OT Final 4 game. Yawn.

Right, Mitchell and Butler are transfers but not from a non-power conference.

Baylor reminds me of UC teams of the past with swarming dee and the command on the boards but...with wayyy better shooters.

Offensive Boards
13 Baylor
1 Zags

Defensive Boards
16 Baylor
14 Zags

Zags from the get go just didn't have it. Sloppy play. Cold from outside. Out toughed. Low energy. Baylor making everything look easy.
