Gonzaga Opens Season Against Purdue in Vegas

Gonzaga kicks off their 2026-27 season in style with a high-stakes Hall of Fame Series showdown against Purdue in Las Vegas on November 2nd, tipping off at 4:30 PM Pacific — the first of two men’s games that day. It’s Gonzaga’s debut in the revamped Pac-12, adding extra buzz to this Vegas spectacle. Coach Mark Few is pumped, praising Purdue’s disciplined pedigree — a team that’s historically dominated Gonzaga, going 5-0 in recent matchups, including three with former star Zach Edey. But Purdue’s roster has changed, with key grads leaving, while Gonzaga returns three starters ready to rise to the challenge. This opener in the glittering T-Mobile Arena isn’t just a game — it’s a statement for the Bulldogs’ new era. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
