NCAA Tournament 2019: Gonzaga vs. Fairleigh Dickinson game preview

The No. 1 Gonzaga Bulldogs will open their 2019 NCAA Tournament run against the No. 16 Fairleigh Dickinson Knights.

The Zags haven’t played a game since that beyond disappointing loss to Saint Mary’s in the WCC Tournament Championship game, back on March 12. Hopefully, the time off is enough for the Zags to lick their wounds and figure out what the living $#*% went wrong.

The Knights used a big second half to push past Prairie View A&M in the first game of the NCAA Tournament.

Right off the bat when scouting the Knights, you will notice that statistically, they are one of the better three point shooting teams in the country, hitting 40 percent as a team, good for the fifth-best mark.
