Game Preview: Gonzaga v. Kent State
The Gonzaga Bulldogs return home for their first game in The Kennel since the season opener against North Florida. There is no denying that it has been a challenging stretch for the Zags as they navigate their way through what Mark Few calls the toughest non-conference schedule he’s put together.
Gonzaga has struggled to find its identity and it shows in the loss column. The 5-3 start is Gonzaga’s worst start to a season since the 2010-11 campaign when they opened with a 4-5 record that included a 3-game losing streak to Illinois, Washington State, and Notre Dame. Kent State might not be quite at those levels, but the Golden Flashes are no pushover either.
