Notre Dame opens -10 over SU

[690West]

Double digit dogs again

I think this is the road game that could make or break our slim chances of making the tournament.

We can beat these guys

 

[Brooky03]

Norte Dame? I think that's where Travis Cooney plays

My sentiments exactly.

Not to be a debbie downer, but we need to win this game to get in the discussion, even if we win we still aren't on the bubble.

Thought it would be more (sadly).

We play well against ND historically. Nothing would surprise me.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Colson is going to have 20 and 15

 

[upperdeck]

If you go thru and look at the brackets right now they have wake and pitt in.. no way that happens if they stay in the bottom 3-4 of the ACC.. So go work thru the entire rest of the field and you will see there are at most 6-7 teams ahead of us so the chances are far from slim even if we only get to 9-9.

Matt Rifleman Ryan will have at least 5 threes off the bench for Da Irish, and then proceed to beat Green Bay

 

[two3zone]

I liked it better when I thought we were capable of winning any game on the schedule.

 

[Syracusian]

The major question is how 690 is feeling about this spread.

I didn't know what to expect. I thought UNC -13 was low. We didn't match up well with them and I didn't see us having a real chance at winning. We match up much better against ND and I see us having a great chance at pulling off the upset. We should be able to get turnovers. ND has been one of the more surprising teams in the league this year but they are beatable.

 

[iommi]

ND is a smart team with outstanding senior leadership and amazing passing. We don't bring any of those assets.

 

[jncuse]

Cuse to win straight up.

It's my 44 star lock of the year.

The major question is how 690 is feeling about this spread.

FYI. 690 is a degenerate gambler who probably has a 35% win rate over the past 15 years. That being said, I don't have a strong feeling either way about tomorrow.

We are 16-5 vs. ND since Brey got there and have won 7 of the last 8. Personally I'm taking the points and laying a little on the ML. I think we have a chance.

However no Cooney hurts

Who do we match up well with?

 

[STEVEHOLT]

ehh..this line sounds about right. I see the Irish with a comfortable lead starting early second half and the cuse hanging around 8-12 points back...and it will come down to whether some irrelevant last second uncontested shot goes in.

Or B.J. Johnson! (who had his career-high 19 during the big upset at South Bend two years ago when they were top-10). However, I do agree with JDubs30 and Jncuse---think we have a shot today. And I am also willing to bet they don't shoot 71% from three again like they did Wed -- 15-21 is insane!

You got stones, and that's all that matters.

 

[AZOrange]

Do we play these guys at ND every year?

Played them in the Dome last year.

Played them in the Dome last year.

I thought we had a roadie...I was being facetious just seems like we're always there
