The Gonzaga–Saint Mary's men's basketball rivalry is an intra-West Coast Conference college basketball rivalry between the Saint Mary's Gaels men's basketball team of Saint Mary's College of California in Moraga, California and the Gonzaga Bulldogs men's basketball team of Gonzaga University in Spokane, Washington. Many analysts and members of the media have touted the Gaels vs. Zags as one of the best, if not the best, college basketball rivalry on the West Coast,[1][2] as both teams have been consistently two of the top three teams in the conference over the last 2 decades. Gonzaga and Saint Mary's have combined to win 20 out of the last 24 conference championship games, including 18 of the last 20 and each of the last 10. The two teams have met a total of 104 times dating back to 1955 and currently meet biannually as a part of WCC conference play, with the potential to play a third game in the WCC Tournament and a fourth in the postseason.[3][4] As of March 2020, they have met 18 times in the WCC Tournament but have never met in any postseason tournaments beyond the end of conference play.[3]

gollark: Is there such a thing as "different ones" if they have the same configuration though?

gollark: There's no convenient history marker on the particles.

gollark: Well, if you copy yourself down to the subatomic level I don't think "you" and the other one are actually distinguishable.

gollark: Well, magically copied, not literally cloned.

gollark: What if you happen to be asleep while cloned, or something?
