When BYU entered the West Coast Conference ahead of the 2011-2012 season, most assumed their biggest roadblock would be the Gonzaga Bulldogs.
Now having finished their 11th and second-to-last season in the WCC, that rings more true than ever before. Gonzaga went from perennial tournament team to perennial national title contender during BYU’s time in the conference. All while BYU has struggled to keep up, making the tournament just four times in those 11 seasons (assuming they do not hear their name called this Sunday), without ever winning a WCC title of any kind.
