Later today, the Zags will make a run at their second-consecutive Elite Eight appearance. The big difference is this time around, Gonzaga is attempting the feed as a No. 11 seed.
Seemingly, in any other year, the odds would be stacked against them. But instead of facing the No. 2 Michigan State Spartans, the Zags will face off against the No. 10 Syracuse Orange and their well-known 2-3 zone.
The Zags are heading into the game favored according to Las Vegas. But as we know in March Madness, being favored by a bunch of people waving paper tickets really doesn't mean much.
