As expected @ZagMBB too strong for an @UNC_Basketball who battled but limited offensively especially w/o super Diaper Dandy @The_ColeAnthony lost their 4th straight .Zags win 94-81

Zags beat Heels 94-81. Ol’ Roy gets an attaboy for bringing his team out and the Kennel has a grand old night.

Wins over Oregon, at Washington, at Arizona, and against UNC for a Gonzaga team that lost 75% of its scoring from last year and a team that isn’t completely healthy. Gonzaga is the real deal.

Ayayi and Tillie seem like two players the Kings would be interested in. https://t.co/aeACD5Sxbx

Gonzaga students with the “We want Wofford,” chant.

The WCC’s stellar November/December continues.

Both Gonzaga and Saint Mary’s rolling over their respective opponents.

Very good mid-major league.

3 bids?

This is where the old Kennel Club would chant “Up by Twen-ty!” Seven points by Corey Kispert after a bit of a lull makes it 79-59, Zags. Who have the ball off a Carolina turnover.

It’s a shame North Carolina is not at full strength. This could have been one of the great nonconference games but Gonzaga is obliterating em.

Kiss of death: Gonzaga is really good, like as good as anyone in the country

Almost surreal seeing Roy Williams and North Carolina coming off the floor into the locker room at Gonzaga. Even more strange seeing them trail 44-37 and not be at all surprised. pic.twitter.com/dfyHPU6nRF

Gonzaga has to be the greatest “Upset” in college sports history- not a flash in the pan. 20 years of sustained success at a small private school in Eastern Washington. Hell North Carolina is playing in SpokeVegas Wednesday

The Kennel sells out EVERY SINGLE GAME.. But tonight, it just feels a little bit more full in here.

North Carolina at Gonzaga.

Shoot arounds and prep done for @UNC_Basketball and @ZagMBB I have the call on @westwood1sports with Ryan Radtke. Biggest name to ever come to The Kennel in Spokane and should be an amazing atmosphere. pic.twitter.com/wZPhZlyXyu
