Gonzaga Weekly Update: Zags first team to go undefeated in conference three times

Look at the picture above. That pretty much illustrates what Gonzaga has done to the WCC this year.

Thank god for Patty Mills' broken hand.

Now that said, let's take a step back and look at where the Zags stand after their 58-47 victory over San Diego last night. Remember midway through the season when it looked like they were turning in lack luster performances and not really living up to expectations. Now while they didn't turn things around to the point where everyone is believing them going into the tournament but they're playing with enough snort and a chip-on-their-shoulder attitude that they'll definitely need in the WCC Tournament.

Why? According to JSON contributor Dylan Kitzan, who lives breathes and smokes college basketball, they're not his favorite in the tournament. That would be Saint Mary's.

They've caused problems for the Zags in their meetings so far this season and that game will be an absolute barn-burner when the two squads match up. Now that being said, ranked No. 17 in the nation, they don't need to win their tournament. But that is some added momentum that these guys need going into the NCAAs.

So while Zag fans should be happy they've reached this milestone, they can't take a breather right now. They've got to continue to dig and scratch. Who knew this season was going to be so tough?
