Might as well get it started. This game is going to be a tough one to predict. Notre Dame is experienced, skilled, and Luke Harangoudy is a manchild with 20 foot range. From the sound of things from the St. Louis game, I hope that we are able to get off to a better start to the halfs and not put ourselves in such a deep hole. We might have pulled off the upset vs. the Billikins if we would have done that.

Either way, looking forward to seeing how we matchup with the best of the best on the road. The Notre Dame fans are expecting a blowout, so here's hoping to us giving them a run for their money.

So is Markeith hurt? i heard he left the game early. Thats prob the biggest factor.

Cool. Hopefully it wil be good quality.

ND is ranked 23 now in one poll. I would love to beat a ranked team. Though i think the secret is out that were not one to overlook now.

ND is shooting lights out this year.

Luke Harangody is such a force inside. Scary...

I know we have a link to watch for free from the ND website, but just in case anyone is interested there is a website http://www.channelsurfing.net that also has the game up. It could be the same feed, but I don't know for sure. Also, something else that might be noted is that also on that website there is a link to a 7 PM game between Quinnipiac and Maine. I might watch that one for half an hour or so just because, as I'm sure you all know, we have to go to Maine and play them in about three weeks, returning the favor from the 100 Club Classic last year. Just thought I'd share if anyone was interested.

Lets hope we can compete. We can't allow them to shoot over 50% if we want to stay in this one. This means we are going to have to somehow contain All American Luke Harangody lol Hmm sounds difficult. We will need to create turnovers and shoot well. I predict us losing by 15 but you never know what can happen! We are athletic this year and maybe we can pull something off.

We need to start the game better then we did last time. none of this down 14-2 stuff or w/e it was.

Watching online. They are giving us credit for the SLU game.

i gotta say...i sound like a d-1 newbie, but its cool watching us play Notre dame

21-18 ND 8 minutes left. Well played game so far.

were doing alright. we arent communicating well on defense. Way too many open looks for Notre Dame.

23-22! WOW we dont look bad.

and those are the type of turnovers we cant afford.

Weak finish on the half. 33-24 ND at the half.

35-32... Markeith DUNK!!! 16 minutes left

42-35... 15 minutes left

45-37... 14 minutes

44-39 ! DUNK!

49-39 ... not looking good.

Not liking the way our offense is looking towards the end of the half. the play it safe mentality is hurting us.

I'll be optimistic now. Markeith did not have a good half, so if he picks it up in the second half we have a shot at competing.

Their playing a 2-3 zone. We need to start driving to the basket. Drive and dish.

Markeith with the Oop. Human highlight reel.

The fouls are becoming a problem. We need to get Kelvin on some three point shots.
