On Monday night, in Spokane, Washington, San Diego State played Gonzaga at the Kennel, and lost big.
SDSU’s biggest margin of defeat over the last nine seasons and 260 games was 26 points at New Mexico in 2009. They were down 30 midway through the second half Monday before ultimately losing 69-48 to the 13th-ranked Bulldogs.
For a brief moment, the Aztecs reverted to a team that could not play offense or handle a standard 2-3 zone, and fans collectively panicked.
Gonzaga’s lineup of giants included a 6’10” player, two at 6’11” and 7’, and TWO more at 7’1”.
