Payback for Gonzaga. I hope our students honor their team with an overrated chant.

Explain? Gonzaga seems fairly accurately rated. They are damn good.

Their student section was chanting that at us in the final minutes of the game at Gonzaga. I just want them to get the same respect or lack there of when we beat them at our house.

The amount of big 12 slurping contained in the world espn rankings is rediculous. You can alway count on ESPN to substitute biased opinion benefiting the P5 in the place of actual analysis.

Would imagine Gonzaga will be quite early in the season.

Rothstein is getting ripped on Twitter for not having the Zags in his top 25. He had to overlook them because there's no way they're not in the top 25.

Yeah, definitely an oversight.

Just like Rothstein overlooked the Zags seems to be the same thing ESPN did with SMU. Every other early Top 25 projection I have seen, SMU is in.

Don't chant overrated. That's stupid.
Gonzaga will be good and it seems like we would play them early (maybe the 24 hr tipoff marathon again on ESPN?)
