Gonzaga set to join the Pac-12: Do the Bulldogs have a football team?

The big news circulating the college basketball world is that the Gonzaga Bulldogs are joining the Pac-12. The Zags are the latest school to join the conference, following Boise State, Colorado State, Fresno State, San Diego State, and Utah State.

Most sports fans are familiar with the storied dominance of Gonzaga men's basketball, seemingly replacing UCLA as the powerhouse basketball program in the Pac-12.

However, as the Pac-12 looks to return to a conference with eight schools that have football programs, does the addition of Gonzaga get it one step closer?
