So much fun watching this game with a few hundred Baylor fans at the palace (aka McLane Stadium).

Timme definitely bodied him on that shot and the no call was a joke.

Butler fouled on the drive and no call, but Vital gets the rebound and foul called on Zags finally.

Watching a few Gonzaga games this tournament, that's pretty much all he does. He just never gets called for his moving screens, so he continues to do them. I wonder if he even knows how to set a legal screen.

Gonzaga is going to have a run or two. But we are going to win this game. Our team is playing with great heart and no quit.
