Is Notre Dame the highest ranked team we've ever hosted in any sport? I remember that we hosted No. 4 Boise State in football in 2011, but Notre Dame is No. 2 in women's basketball.

Indiana?

Let me guess...Uconn is #1

Wasn't ND #1 at some point this season? Would have been cooler to have beaten the #1 team.

Notre Dame was #1 until Uconn passed them by a few votes last week. Then Uconn beat them last week to become unanimous #1.

Well for comparison, Notre Dame beat Central Michigan by 60 points earlier this season...

Does anyone know about ticket sales so far. Are they expecting a sell out?

Not anymore... sleet and snow and crappy weather will keep the non superfans away. Lucky for us we have about 3,000 superfans for WBB. I bet we draw over 5,500 with a good ND crowd, maybe 1,000 of them.

If we pack the lower bowl it will be a loud crowd. Anything over 6k is great. This WBB team should be getting more devotion by the local media. I hope we give our girls a good home court advantage.
