I've already bet them at 8-1.

I agree. That's why they are a #3 seed. You could make the same argument for most of the #3 seeds.

I did at 7.7 to 1. I'm very happy with it, for all the reasons that you enumerated above, but basically because they're an undervalued #3 seed. I would be very surprised if Gonzaga doesn't make it to St. Louis, considering that they've already beaten the Huskies, the Cowboys, and the Yellow Jackets.

[6 -2 against other teams that made the tournament.

That's pretty impressive.

to put it in some perspective, Duke is 8-2 vs. tourney teams (including ACC tourney), Washington is 7-3, and fellow #3 seed Arizona is 5-3, according to my quick count.

seems they're in pretty good company

I haven't seen anybody on ESPN pick them.
Wake and Ga Tech seem to be the trendy teams in that region.

Because they are the best team in their regional...

...Great. More money for me....

...The Zags should be about 3-1 in this regional. 8-1 is a gift.

the last 6 mins Gonzaga played that game might've been some of the worst basketball I've ever seen. And I'm a Syracuse fan so I see a lot of really bad offensive basketball. Just awful.
