Gonzaga-Baylor feels a lot like Chiefs-Bucs. Someone came to play, brought the defense and the other team couldn’t handle a punch in the mouth.

Gonzaga finishes the 2020-21 season at 31–1, falling just short of becoming the first undefeated men's team since Indiana in 1975-76. Baylor had not reached the Final Four since 1950 prior to this season.
