Gonzaga pulled off a March miracle against UCLA in Sweet 16, winning an epic game that featured a furious rally and two 3-pointers in the final 13 seconds.
The Zags celebrated on the floor, with their families in the stands and in the locker room.
Then they turned their attention to a physical UConn team playing like it’s capable of winning a national championship.

The Huskies have bullied their way through the bracket, winning their first three games by a combined 62 points.
UConn has heft inside in 6-foot-9, 245-pound Adama Sanogo and potent perimeter scorers in Tristan Newton and Jordan Hawkins.
The Huskies turned what was supposed to be one of the NCAA Tournament’s best games so far into a Sweet 16 blowout, overwhelming Arkansas for an 88-65 win Thursday night.
