Lets go Irish!!!!

[ndhell]

This is what the madness is all about.

 

[perseverare]

running into a guys hand while he pushes the ball forward is a foul?

 

[hawkit3113]

Huge steal!!!

 

[ndhell]

Wow if ND loses.......

 

[ndhell]

DJ is seeing double right now. Not Good.

 

[captstabbin]

Maybe a defensive rebound????

 

[Yooper Irishfan]

Need to hit free throws here.

 

[hawkit3113]

GO AWAY NORTHEASTERN!!!!!!!!

 

[yogind]

Soft again......

 

[ndhell]

ND sucks at throwing the ball in under pressure, do they not practice this at all?

 

[hawkit3113]

Holy Crap, that was way to close for my liking. A wins, a win though.

 

[Yooper Irishfan]

Why the **** is Brey calling a timeout here??????????

 

[IrishHerb]

Whew!

So we move on.

 

[ndhell]

Wow happy ND won, but I feel bad for Max Plansky.

if so, we should practice it but we should also issue UA goggles to our players

 

[hawkit3113]

Good win. Clean a few things up and we are going to be fine. I cant state it enough that the first game is always the hardest one.

 

[Irish437]

Nice gameplan by Brey. He won while only shooting 6 3's. That will give their next opponent something to think about.

 

[Flanner Hall]

Win and move on. Hopefully whatever they were feeling today is gone by Saturday.

 

[no1e]

Wow! Great game from a spectator standpoint.

NE couldn't stop the low pick-n-roll and gave up too many transition points on turnovers. ND defense created key turnovers when they had to.

Good game.

 

[Yooper Irishfan]

We'll be just fine. Survive and advance! Hawk is right...the first game is rarely a good indication of a team's strength. That's why you see so many upsets in the first round!

 

[DieHard_Irish]

Not pretty, but a win is a win. Gotta play a lot better on Saturday.

 

[stu4don]

Good defense. We did come out tight and our offense looked out of sync.

But limit the turnovers and play D -- we will get out shots.


Win and advance!

 

[mwjourney]

DJ was solid today, was smart for them to foul him though........A good win looking at all the other games and how close they are right now. No easy games I guess unless you're Kentucky.....

I expect Notre Dame will play much better in the next game..

 

[deadmanramsey]

This team is Charmin soft. We got doubled up on the boards. Definitely a flawed team. Good news is that we don't live and die by the three ball on the offensive side at least. But if you shoot 57% it should not be this close. If we had a big guy in the middle who could wreak havoc and do some dirty work, I think we'd have a complete team. As it is, we just gotta get by with what we have and hope we continue to shoot lights out...because the margin for error is slim the way this team is built.

 

[hawkit3113]

ISU lost, so that just tells you how critical the first games are. We will come out ready next round.

 

[mwjourney]

Baylor just lost too..........I'm liking our win more and more...........and we will play better.

 

[Flanner Hall]

And now Baylor goes down.

 

[mwjourney]

Butler and Texas are better teams than Northeastern but I like our chances better with them. The lower seeds seem to play so loose that they are the games that worry me the most. So it's two Big 12 teams out already.

 

[sluggo69]

Survive and advance

I'd rather have the Irish play Texas but it is what it is.
Butler had a bad game today. Texas had a bad season.

Only 6 attempted 3 's ?????? Not understanding this . Still found way to win . Every game I guess takes it's own identity. Give NE credit. They never quit.
