Gonzaga's resume DIPS thanks to UGLY week from former opponents! | How concerning is this trend?

Gonzaga Bulldogs slip to No. 9 in the AP poll despite boasting a 17-1 record—has their once-dominant strength of schedule now put their NCAA Tournament seeding in jeopardy? Andy Patton examines how disappointing showings from key opponents like Alabama and Kentucky threaten the Zags’ national perception and the impact on their NET ranking.

Breaking down Quad 1 and Quad 2 wins, Andy Patton explains Gonzaga’s remaining schedule, potential path to securing a top NCAA seed, and why teams like Creighton and Oregon still matter for their resume. Plus, a spotlight on the Gonzaga women’s basketball team: Lisa Fortier’s squad rolls past Portland thanks to another breakout game from freshman Lauren Whittaker, but persistent turnover woes loom over their WCC title hopes. Are the Zags poised for a late-season resurgence, or are storm clouds gathering at the wrong time?
