2022 PK85 Invitational Bracket Revealed

The bracket and matchups have been revealed for the PK85 Invitational, the multi-team event the Gonzaga Bulldogs are partaking in, happening over Thanksgiving weekend in Portland, Oregon.

The powers to be are dead set on a high profile Gonzaga vs. other opponent, with the Zags drawing the Portland State Vikings in the first round of the tournament.

The Zags, understandably for the west coast fans, are the late night team on Nov. 24, with the game set to start at a lovely 9:30 pm PT, enough hours after Thanksgiving dinner for a requisite post-turkey nap.

Gonzaga will then play the winner of Purdue and West Virginia, and, if they win will head off to face what most likely seems to be Duke in the championship game.
