SU at Notre Dame (62-72): Thurs Feb 26, 7 PM

It is so hard following our teams. We seem to be so good, until we are not. Fooled me again this season. Sorry to be so bitter, but I put my heart into our team, watch every game, and just keep getting disappointed
 
are we in danger of missing the NCAAs now? I'm guessing with tiebreakers we are 8th or 9th now in the ACC.
 
I have watched every game this year and my feelings are : We are a good basketball team, but not elite. In the ACC, we are at the top...of the middle of the pack...just outside of the elite in the conference. I think it is very clear that we only have 4 scoring threats and we need all 4 to be scoring at their best to beat an elite team. We seem to have enough offense to beat average to poor teams, but to beat the elites, you need to be able to do one of two things: (1) Play good enough defense to shut down elite offenses or (2) Have enough offensive firepower to keep pace with high scoring teams. So far, we have not managed to do either against really good teams. We should get into the NCAA's, but with a low seed and we can beat some teams not familiar with our style of play... but we need another scoring threat to emerge if we expect to make a run in March.
