    Is the ACC the zags kryptonite? Article inside. (Plus mark few tourny stats)

    The NCAA Tournament has been pretty special for Gonzaga, given that the Zags are the only program in the country to reach the last four Sweet 16s. The ACC hasn’t been nearly as kind, putting sour conclusions on each of the Zags’ last four seasons.


    Zags are 2-6 vs the ACC in march and score an average of 20 ppg less vs the Acc then vs the rest.

    When we lose to ACC teams in march they are the better seed except last night.

    Mark few is 0-1 in national championship games.

    Mark few is 1-0 in final 4 games.

    Mark few is 1-1 in elite 8 games

    Mark few also falls to 2-6 in the sweet 16.

    Mark few is 8-8 in second round games.

    Mark few is 16-3 in first round games

    So serious question for my fellow posters. (Please try to keep it civil. I'm asking honest opinions.)

    When we lose is it because the opponent's were better? We got out coached? What?

        Really?? I'm pretty sure we were in the National Championship game last year, which means we didn't go out at the Sweet 16. And there was an Elite 8 in there before that, so this is just wrong.

                  Beat wake forest 2011

                  This is a lame thread.... we’ve been so unlucky vs the 4 acc losses. Go back and look at the four games. We could’ve won any of them. Missed bunny by Wiltjer, bad 10 second call by refs vs Syracuse ..... NWG hurt last year tillie this year. Bad luck.

                      Lame thread? Bet u one starred it too.

                      Go write spokesman and tell them they write lame stuff.

                      Also spokesman was strictly speaking march tournaments but you had your panties all wadded up so you didn't comprehend and wanted to argue and downplay the thread.

                      Facts are facts.

                      2-6 vs the Acc in march tournaments. It is what it is.

                        At times yep. It must be just the players right?

                          Nah didn’t one star it. Sorry if you took it the wrong way man. Not my intention. Showed we’ve beaten ACC teams in tournament and in pressure packed situations. That was my only intention...

                          Here’s my main issue.... the guy in the postgame said we weren’t “prepared” for Florida state which is absurdity. Lol idk I’m still sad at last night.... just like the rest of us. Sorry man. I love your posts, just aggravated at some of the talk that we aren’t prepared for acc teams. Lol.

                            I guess one must ask what our overall seed average is these days. A few years ago it was 7. I would have to think it’s 6 at least now even with an 11 thrown in there... we aren’t usually expected to go past sweet sixteen yet we’ve outperformed our seed line just as much as we’ve played to it. And we hardly ever go and play Below our seed line. Only a few (maybe 4 times?) have we done that. Maybe one or two more .... some of those games include, Wyoming, Nevada, Davidson and Wichita state Some dark days for sure

                              I didn't necessarily agree with the spokesman either. I personally thought we would of beat FSU last night with Tillie. The other losses we ran into a better team and unfortunately it was the Acc.

                              Yea I'm still bummed and pissed off too. I was just trying to bring articles into the mix. I added the few stats to add to the overall stats but I wasn't trying to bring down anyone.

                              I probably have PTSD cuz all my threads get one starred.
