As we wait for the 2021 March Madness tournament to start, it is fair to say there is a weight of expectation on the Gonzaga Bulldogs.
The team has never won the NCAA tournament, and they’ve only made it to the Championship game once, losing in 2017. This is also the only time they have made it to the Final Four.
