our irish are in the quarterfinals tonight vs Miami at 9pm on espn2. on paper our irish should win this game but if they don't come really focused and ready to play then this could be an upset. Miami knows there on the bubble right now so there coming in hungry and wanting to make a good impression for the selection people
 
Time for Brey to step it up in the post season for sure. As promising as the season has been a loss early in the ACC tourney or in the big show would be devastating to the promising momentum that the mens basketball program has created.
 
Yeah I don't have a great feeling about this game. Our reward for winning is Duke in the semis and I'm sure Virginia in the finals should we be so fortunate.
 
How do you know that Duke is going to beat NC State and that Louisville/UNC won't upset UVA??
 
I don't want to jinx our team so I won't predict a winner. Good luck and Go Irish!
 
I saw the betting line being only at 3, so that means it's considered a virtual tossup.
 
If we beat Miami, then our potential reward could be #2 Duke in the semis, and #3 Virginia in the finals should we make it there. A tough task.
 
after what happened last season to this team i'll just be happy to get to the semis
 
If there not really focused they're could be an upset. Then their would really be a blowup on this board. And if the get two confident, that could hurt them to, even if they would get beat by only too points. Ahm jus' sayin'.

Miami knew about who was leader of points by ND. Grant.I'm hope Jackson play very well vs Miami.
 
So far the team looks good. Connaughton has gone 4-4 from 3 point range and team as whole 7-8.
 
We're running them out of the building right now up 33-14. Our defense is playing great.
 
So far, so good.

Hope the guys can keep up the intensity in the 2nd half. If they do, we should win.
 
One of the most fun halves of the year right there! Shooting the lights out AND playing tough defense. They are settling for outside shots, and most of the inside points have been garbage points. Keep it up boys!
 
2nd half isn't looking good.

Have yet to make a FG.

Get working guys!!
 
1 pt in the first 7 minutes. Amazing. Not terribly worried yet though...we're not going to score less than 20 this half.
 
^ wow, this is ugly. I can't recall a collapse like this. From can't miss, to can't throw a rock in the ocean, and turnovers. Stunning, might be the largest choke job that I have ever seen. They can't make one shot

You're just a USC fan.
 
Didn't know this team was capable of going 12 mins without a basket. That was a horrendous foul call on the Grant tie up lol.
 
^ they are not losing the game for us, but these officials just suck. For both teams.
These officials are flat out awful

Yeah I wasn't implying they are one-sided. There have been some atrocious calls in this one. To be honest I think we've benefited more than we've been hurt by them. Officiating is just bad in general.
 
^ as a former official, I totally agree.

This isn't coaching either. I hate to see and say it, but this is big time choking
Pat and Grant are killing them in the 2nd half. How could anyone predict that.

Survived. Need the team from the first half tomorrow night, and we'll need them the whole game.
 
By the Grace of God!!!!!!

Was an ugly 2nd half but we got the win. Survive and advance is the name of the game this time of year. Congrats guys!
 
^^^^^ you said it.

If we play tomorrow like we did in the 2nd half tonight, Duke will really whip us.

Got to play the whole game like we played the first half.
