It will be elite offense vs. elite defense when the Gonzaga Bulldogs and UCLA Bruins meet in the Sweet 16 on Thursday in Las Vegas. 

Gonzaga, the No. 3 seed in the West Region, is in the third round of the NCAA Tournament for the eighth consecutive season, thanks in large part to the No. 1 rated offense in all of college basketball. The Bruins, the No. 2 seed in the West, are in the Sweet 16 behind the No. 2 rated defense in the country. 

Something has to give on Thursday.

In the latest episode of the Gonzaga Nation podcast, former Zags' All-American Dan Dickau analyzes the Gonzaga-UCLA showdown, including how he thinks the Bruins will defend Drew Timme.
