BRUINS Cover

I don't understand why Man from Uncle getting 14 points...

Seems way too many for Saturday late contest..TV wants UCLA to just make it interesting...I can see this happening..Bruins are on an unreal roll courtesy of Tom Izzo.. remember that Msu meltdown in 2nd half..seems like some miraculous destiny going on here... 

BRUINS playing lights out as are Zags...Zujang is definitely MVP of tournament so far..Suggs has been a Beast too... Zags are due for a scare..they do hail from WCC.. the mighty St Mary's..lol.. 

I say this last Pac-12 squad doesn't head off the court with it's tail between it's legs like conference mates CU, OSU, USC, and Oregon all eventually did..HC Cronin is coaching like John Wooden  

You just got to believe...

amazes me that ANYONE loves the Bruins in this matchup

I admit I am wrong about that!!  Your'e not the only one

 BUD..I don't Love Ucla. I just think Zags are overdue to have a challenge...They WILL win this game but I know they WON'T cover Both of these games they're playing in.. 

The hype of them is getting very mighty and deservedly so.. BUT.. Bruins are being coached unbelievably well.. listen to Cronin's interviews..he really believes in his squad. I think they can play good enough to stay under such a high number. I went to Blackhawk sports book to cash last week s tux and writer said EVERYONE is taking ZAGS giving up 14'..WTF..the line is begging to back BRUINS...

If they play Defense like they did in BYU game... This will definitely fall UNDER the offered inflated number. .Unreal 14'...

 The Verdict is in ...  A play in game team UCLA is not coming anywhere close to covering the spread against the Zags. If anything, "TV" wants the nation to see this Gonzaga team prove the hype they deserve.

I see a full time blow out in this one. UCLA will be out of it quick. 

I see gonzaga losing there 27 game double digit win streak,last time someone held the zags to a single digit game was way back on dec 2 to w.vir. zags win but by 9 or less. 

I can see a beatdown of epic proportions here.  This Zags team is all-time great team.  The Bruins program also dealt Gonzaga one of its' most memorable and heartbreaking losses in 2006.  Not to say 2006 has any bearing on this game, but that 2006 Zags team was also led by Mark Few.  I would not put it past Mark Few to show his players clips of that game and the heartbroken reaction of his players as an added motivation to the current players to absolutely mop the floor with this UCLA team.  The Zags came close and fell just short against UNC a few years ago.  If they don't win with a team as awesome as this, they may never win a NCAAB title.    

As for #11 seed UCLA, all other 11 seeds that made the final four, lost in the final four, and failed to cover.  BOL if you are backing a Cinderella team against an all-time great team firing on all cylinders.

  totally agree! Last DD seed in final four was Loyola a few years ago and while they hung around for awhile against Michigan, elite talent took over. This Gonzaga team is the one of the all-time greats!! It's either Zags or no play for me.

I don’t like the payout for UCLA on the spread I like the ML! UCLA will bring it and they are battle tested. Gonzaga has played very few quality teams all year. UCLA BELIEVES!

If juzang wilds out and they play D they have a shot at a SU win. However if they don't execute perfectly then its game over. Keep in mind that Juzang is the best pure shooter on the floor tomorrow. 

Wouldn’t mind Cronin playing that tape of 2006 when bruins were down 17 and still clipped Morrison and Few. Heartbreak city! That well oiled machine is getting tested tomorrow no way I see a beat down but we all see things differently and cap differently.  UCLA once again has a chance to upset the zags and shock the world just like they’ve been doing all tournament. History might repeat itself tomorrow give me 14

Stop with "TV wants, NCAA wants" Just stop with the foolishness

Wow.. had that game pegged but what about those Baylor Bears??? 

Coming from Big 12.. playing better competition only helps Bears. Bears are the much better team from using the eye test..I know I posted that I saw Zags going 1-1 in these 2 games but I'm starting to have doubts..We will see.. 

Good luck and congrats to all who may have tailed..see y'all on Monday.. 

Happy Easter to everyone

great call!!! You were right. Zags were due for a choke/letdown. But they survived, which is huge.
