Zags vs. Broncos of Santa Clara

[rhyno2110]

I think most people want Santa Clara to win this one, and I am one of them. With all the talk on the Zags lately, I kind of have developed a dislike for them. I'm easily influenced i guess.

With that said, lets go Broncos!

Will Foster for Gonzaga is freaking huge.

7'5!!!

Been to Santa Clara before. Nice campus. Reminds me of a tropical Xavier, except not as hilly.

Interesting story someone told me about Santa Clara (not sure whether it's true) but they used to be University of Santa Clara, but the University of Southern California asked them to change to SCU to avoid confusion in the state. Santa Clara agreed, and in return, USC gave them palm trees to plant on their campus as I don't think palm trees are indigenous to that part of California. It's a nice school though.

Go Broncos!

This game is actually more interesting than I thought it would be.

The Zags have butterfingers in the first half with a ton of turnovers.

The Zags can't get into their up-tempo game in the first half.

It looks like Santa Clara has a real chance at this one based on their first half performance

Haha, looks like we have clock malfunctions in Santa Clara.

We aren't the only ones!!

38-33 at half.

Santa Clara leads

I believe this was the matchup last year where there were two technicals assessed to the home team (Santa Clara) for students throwing shit on the court. That game gave me a bad impression of the university's students, as silly as that may sound.

Gonzaga up 1, it looks like Santa Clara is a bit tentative.

[rhyno2110]

I can't believe it. Gonzaga pulled away at the end.

Santa Clara played like a bunch of pussies in the last 10 minutes of the game. Nobody wanted to shoot the ball it looked like.

It's tough when 2 Jesuit schools are playing each other...which one were you rooting for in this game?

Had no horse in this race, but enjoyed the game. Curled up with a beer, threw a couple of Al Gore's books on the fire, and had a good time.
