Gonzaga are 28-0, and they are seeking to be the first team since the Indiana Hoosiers in 1976 (32-0) to win the tournament while staying undefeated for the entire season. Gonzaga’s fast moving offense usually wears down opponents, and they often earn plenty of free throws, which the Bulldogs are very good at hitting.
