Merry Madness! Sixteen down and 16 to go. There’s been plenty of upsets so far in the round of 64 of March Madness 2015, and there’s sure to be more on Day 2 – aka Friday, March 20 – of the NCAA Tournament. One the games taking place on Day 2 in the South bracket is No. 2 Gonzaga vs. No. 15 North Dakota State.
Gonzaga punched its ticket to the dance with an automatic bid for winning the West Coast Conference tournament. The Bulldogs post a 32-2 overall record, 17-1 in the WCC and were ranked No. 7 in the nation’s top 25.
The Zags face-off against North Dakota State to open up their tournament play.

Last year, as a No. 12 seed in the 2014 Big Dance, the Bison upset No. 5 Oklahoma before falling to No. 4 seed San Diego State. They’ll be looking to play Cinderella once again led by a stingy defense – they allows just 61.6 points to opponents. The Bison are entering tournament play posting a 23-9 (12-4) record.
