The Gonzaga Bulldogs and the UCLA Bruins face off for the first time since the second to last game of last season, when a Jalen Suggs’ bank shot in overtime as time expired sent the Zags to the national championship and UCLA home packing.
For college basketball, it is the biggest game of the season so far, with the No. 1 and No. 2 teams facing off for nothing more than bragging rights at the moment, and perhaps the first of two games between the two collegiate titans this season.
