Graham Ike Ties Career High in Corvallis, Gonzaga Rebounds With 81-61 Win Over Oregon State

After the Gonzaga Bulldogs fell to the Portland Pilots 87-80 on Wednesday night, Gonzaga Bulldogs star forward Graham Ike guaranteed that what happened in the program’s worst loss in recent memory wouldn’t happen again.

The 6-9 redshirt senior’s statement was in regards to the team’s effort defensively three nights ago, but it could be applied to a couple of other things as well. Losing to the third-worst team in the WCC could be one of them. Falling to Oregon State on the road like the Bulldogs did last season in overtime could be another.

Well, neither of those things occurred on Saturday as GU (23-2, 11-1) put together a 20-point win over Oregon State (13-13, 6-7).
