The Gonzaga Bulldogs would be the fourth No. 1 seed if the NCAA Tournament started today, as revealed during the now annual NCAA bracket preview show.
It would be the third No. 1 seed in school history, and the second in two years. The last time the Zags were a No. 1 seed in 2017, they advanced all the way to the national championship.
Of course, there will be plenty of hand wringing, complaining, and all around discontent from quite a few fanbases out there because “lol WCC,” but looking at it all on paper, you are hard pressed to deny that the Zags aren’t one of the top four teams in the nation, and therefore deserving of the spot.
