Another home and home with the zags in 2017-2018. Tentative neutral site game in staples next year as well.
Next year we already have a neutral game with gonzaga, Missouri on the road, new Mexico at home and the las Vegas invitational tournament against unannounced teams.

Yep, if you want to be the best in the west, have to beat the rest of the best of the west.
Wouldn't call any LA arena neutral though. I might drive down for that.

@Gonzaga is going to be a HUGE test for us.....their front court is stacked and they must want revenge badly......hope we bring our best game. BTFD!

And no one underachieves best in the west than Gonzaga.
However best basketball game ever I have seen in many decades of watching was the 2003 game when Luke Walton decided he wanted to win the game for Arizona, someone Arizona lacked. If ESPN ever launches a classic NCAA basketball channel they game would be on the replay list. I could watch that game again right now.

I was at that game. I was physically exhausted when it ended. Lute should've played Andre & Hassan more that tournament.

Held my team hostage in a restaurant for an extra hour (at least) on the way back from a road trip to colorado. Doubt they minded when all was said and done. One of the all time great tournament games

Tony Skinner, a pretty obscure Zag, was on fire that game. Blake Stepp banker barely misses. Walton was a stud.

Believe UNM was added to.
Wish we could play some Big 12 schools instead.

Over the last three years we have beat Gonzaga on a neutral court, at home, and at their place. We have owned their souls as of late.
