Gonzaga Bulldogs' stunning collapse at Saint Mary's could reshape their NCAA Tournament outlook. After a commanding first half, the Zags unravelled in the second, getting outscored by 18 and surrendering a barrage of threes to Mikey Lewis and Joshua Dent. With Graham Ike’s hot start fizzling and key turnovers from Tyon Grant-Foster, Andy Patton breaks down what went wrong in Moraga—including the Bulldogs' perimeter defense woes and critical offensive rebound gap.

The absence of Jalen Warley looms large, as Andy Patton questions whether Mark Few’s depleted roster can recover ahead of the WCC Tournament. Will extended rest bring Warley back to form, or is Gonzaga facing March with limited firepower? Tune in for analysis of injury concerns, tournament seeding ramifications, and what the Zags must fix to regain championship momentum. Can Gonzaga rebound in time, or is their run in jeopardy?
