Senior Night has not always been kind to the Gonzaga Bulldogs. We all remember the 2015 and 2017 losses to BYU and the 2016 loss to Saint Mary’s. Saturday, scorching hot Loyola Marymount comes to town looking to add their name to that list.
Without looking at the normal WCC standings, who would you guess is in third place right now? If you guessed the 7-4 LMU Lions, you would be correct. Winners of five of their last six, including road wins at San Francisco and Pepperdine, the Lions enter Saturday on the cusp of breaking the top 100 in KenPom.
