I can't remember the last time NU played in a game with significantly less pressure than its opponent, but that will certainly be the case tomorrow. Gonzaga has huge expectations at this point, whereas NU, an eighth seed, has made it exactly as far as they were supposed to and got the win under their belt already.

If playing with pressure means anything, I like the edge NU will have by playing loose and with house money (and yes, I understand some don't like or agree with using that term).

The pressure for NU might show up if they have a big lead again, but I feel like keeping it close throughout might be just what the doctor orders for an upset special.
