Gonzaga men’s basketball absolutely torched New Mexico State last Saturday, putting up a ridiculous 109 points to their 68 at the McCarthey Athletic Center. This isn’t just a win, folks, it’s a statement. The Zags are out here showing they mean business right from the jump, and the rest of the college hoops world better be paying attention.
Zags Men Are Firing On All Cylinders Early
That 109-68 blowout against New Mexico State was pure dominance. We’re talking about a team that looked completely dialed in at the McCarthey Athletic Center, laying down a marker for what’s to come this season. If you caught Episode 6 of “Bulldog Business,” you heard Kyle Sweeney and Josh Gilchrist break it all down, and honestly, the film speaks for itself. The offense was humming, and they were relentless. It’s early, but when you drop triple digits like that, you’re not just winning, you’re sending a message.
Gonzaga Women Showed That Bulldog Grit
It wasn’t just the men making noise. The Gonzaga women’s team proved they’ve got that classic Bulldog grit this week, pulling off a serious turnaround. After a tough 86-75 loss to Idaho at home last Friday, they didn’t just fold. Nope. They bounced back hard yesterday, beating UC Riverside 85-58 inside the Kennel. That’s the kind of resiliency you love to see in the early season, showing they can learn from a loss and come out swinging even harder.
So, what’s next for the Zags? The men are back in action against LSU at the Spokane Arena on November 14. You know the Kennel is gonna be rocking, and the Zags are looking to keep that momentum going with another big win. This is how you start a season in the Emerald State, bringing the energy from day one!
