Gonzaga burnished its resume by picking up an excellent win on the road against a tough Creighton team. The Blue Jays have one of the best offenses in the country, but a depleted Gonzaga offense was still the better unit. The Zags are now averaging 98.4 ppg on the season, which is absurd. Here’s what else I took away from Saturday’s matinee:
- Gonzaga opened with the same offensive set against Creighton as it did against Duke (not counting Kispert’s missed transition layup in the first offensive possession against Duke), resulting in a Rui three-pointer in both games.
