After an absolutely quiet, uneventful weekend and a reshuffling of the Top 25 that resulted in Gonzaga dropping to second in the AP poll, the Bulldogs look to get back to court Thursday.
And thankfully, that conversation is likely to be positive due to their opponent the Loyola Marymount Lions. During the preseason the Lions were tabbed as the darkhorse fourth tournament team behind Gonzaga, BYU and Saint Mary’s and ahead of San Francisco. Some idiot named Tuck Clarry said they’d finish third and compete with BYU for second in his conference preseason rankings.
But the Lions immediately stumbled out of the gate and never found their footing.
