This could be a distraction or a motivator? I don’t think it matters either way if Ty Lawson can play.” The oddsmakers at Sportsbook.com had Gonzaga Bulldogs Final Four Predictions listed at +2500 odds to win the 2009 NCAA Basketball National Championship Game. "Of course it has to help," stated North Carolina head coach Roy Williams about playing so close to home for the Regional match ups in the 2009 NCAA Basketball Tournament. "Every one of those teams was really good. Most of those North Carolina teams were going to win wherever. I've never seen a building beat me yet. Never seen a crowd win a game for me yet. It's got to be the players playing the game."
