Classic

“Game for the ages.” “A timeless classic.” “Best Final 4 game ever.”

I’ve read and heard a lot of these types of comments. I couldn’t agree more.

The Saturday night national semifinal between UCLA and Gonzaga was a piece of sports art.

Great pre-game story lines – check. High execution by both teams on both sides of the ball – check.  Stars playing like stars – check. Drama – check. 

UCLA came into the game as a massive underdog on a Cinderella run. Gonzaga came into the game looking invincible. But that’s why they play the game.

The game could end only one way.

Chills.

Gonzaga will meet Baylor who dismantled Houston in the other semifinal. It’s the matchup most fans wanted.

While the national championship is still to be determined, the winner of our pool is not. Scott Fiasco will finish first. He picked both schools to win it all. So lets take a look at the two remaining scenarios.

If Gonzaga wins 

If Baylor wins

Good luck to all tonight and hope we have an excellent game.
