Gonzaga wasn't looking so powerful when it lost consecutive games to Oregon State and Santa Clara in mid-January. But a strong finish helped restore order and the eighth-seeded Zags (25-8) are in solid form entering Thursday's clash against ninth-seeded Georgia (20-12) in Midwest Region first-round play at Wichita, Kan. If Gonzaga prevails in the battle between two schools that go by Bulldogs, it will have the opportunity to compete for its 10th straight Sweet 16 appearance. The winner of this game likely faces top-seeded Houston, although 16th-seeded SIU Edwardsville will have something to say about that. Gonzaga's seed is its lowest since being a No.
