A few weeks ago, we weren’t sure if Gonzaga would make the NCAA tourney. Mark Few kept that streak going, and now he’s kept another incredible streak alive. NINE CONSECUTIVE SWEET 16’s.
Gonzaga always delivers 💯 #MarchMadness @ZagMBB https://t.co/7VfZacVpkl
Gonzaga takes McCullar-less Kansas to the woodshed to advance to another Sweet 16. https://t.co/WgK1YvNTkt @ZagMBB @KUHoops
Gonzaga went absolutely nuclear in the second half against Kansas. Wowza. Shot 67 percent, hit 5 of 6 3s, scored 1.438 PPP. At one point hit eight straight and 12 of 13 shots and just blew the doors off the Jayhawks. Mark Few mighty impressive. His "down year" brings a Sweet 16.
Gonzaga moves on with a dominant second half. Zags through to the Sweet 16 with an 89-68 win over Kansas. Game was elite for a half. We will always have that first half....

FINAL: No. 5 Gonzaga 89, No. 4 Kansas 68 A ninth straight Sweet 16 appearance for Mark Few and the Zags. Just an incredible streak. Gonzaga has now won 11 of its last 12 -- with 10 of those 11 wins coming by double-digits. Third-best offense in the country over that span.
This will be NINE straight NCAA Tournaments where Gonzaga has made at least the Sweet 16 (including two runner-up title game appearances). That is a truly absurd run for a school that about 25 years ago was still considered a mid-major.
Ninth straight Sweet Sixteen for Gonzaga. Incredible run of sustained success in a tournament where the first weekend always has land mines. Zags dominating Kansas today.
A dominant second half for Gonzaga 😳 https://t.co/4YcAJTZXJ9
Well Gonzaga kept playing great basketball. Kansas not so much. https://t.co/ieEOlmGwfY
Gonzaga will make the Sweet 16 for a NINTH consecutive tournament. An amazing streak. How amazing? Only one other program in this tournament has a multi-year one going (Houston, 4). GU's run is tied for third-longest ever: UCLA, 14 ('67-80) UNC, 13 ('81-93) Duke, 9 ('98-'06)
This will be Gonzaga’s 9th consecutive Sweet 16, tying UNC (1985-93) and Duke (1998-2006) for the most ever. Remarkable achievement.
Gonzaga is outscoring Kansas 31-9 in the second half. Wowza.

Halftime: #Kansas 44, #Gonzaga 43 Jayhawks went 7 of 11 from the 3-point line, Zags were just 3 of 9. Braden Huff scores 11 pts. off the bench with Graham Ike in foul trouble. Ryan Nembhard with 9 ast. and 1 TO, but has yet to score. Ben Gregg: 9 pts., 5 reb. https://t.co/bSR7uiXU5M
This is a high-level tournament game going on between Kansas and Gonzaga. Gimme a sprint to the finish line.
Gonzaga-Kansas has been a banger.
"Whatever you want Gonzaga's getting it!" @ZagMBB https://t.co/vPK1GIWI4e
Fun up and down game between Kansas and Gonzaga. Gotta wonder if the Jayhawks can afford to play this way, though. Gonzaga is thin also, but the Zags look deep compared to this KU team.
22-18 lead for #Kansas with 11:27 to go in the half. #Gonzaga yet to hit a 3-pointer (0 for 2) while Jayhawks are 3 for 5.
