SPOKANE--The Gonzaga men's basketball team only has a few hours left to wait until they find out where, when and who they'll be playing in the first round of the NCAA Tournament, but most experts believe the Zags won't be staying in Spokane.

KREM 2 will air the CBS Sports Selection Show at 3 p.m. that will determine what happens to the Bulldogs.

Gonzaga's 19-point loss to Saint Mary's in the championship game of the West Coast Conference Tournament last week most likely ended any chance of the Bulldogs receiving a bid to play in Spokane for the opening rounds of the NCAA Tournament. 

Gonzaga would be allowed to play in Spokane Veterans Arena, a host site for the first and second rounds on Thursday and Saturday, because the games are not on their home floor and GU is not the host school (Washington State hosts the games).

But according to most major sports websites, Gonzaga will be shipped out of town.

ESPN has the Zags as a seven-seed playing tenth-seeded Clemson in Oklahoma City.

CBS Sportsline has the Bulldogs as a six-seed playing eleven-seed Old Dominion in Jacksonville.

CNN/Sports Illustrated thinks GU will be a seven-seed against ten-seed UTEP in Providence.

Both Yahoo Sports and The Sporting News have Gonzaga as a seven seed.

KREM 2 News at 5:00 and 6:00 will have special coverage of Gonzaga's selection inlcuding live interviews with the team and a look ahead to the Bulldogs' opponent.
