Gonzaga vs. BYU game preview: Zags shoot for second place WCC finish

Unfortunately, that shot is coming in one of the hardest arenas to win in on the West Coast.

When BYU beat the Zags at home way back forever ago, that should have been the first indicator that there was something definitely different about this team. In the game, the Zags lost the lead on Nick Emery's only shot of the night. The Zags had one last chance to win, but Wiltjer's final shot was blocked to seal the loss.

From there it seemed that BYU was the cream of the WCC crop, but then there were the baffling losses to Portland, Pepperdine and Pacific along the way.
