Notre Dame will try and control the tempo, doesn't always work according to plan. As we saw in the ACC tourney. Refs have been allowing physical play all tourney so I would expect the same to continue. I think it'll be pretty tight but if we can go on just a couple of runs I don't think ND can score with us as basic as that sounds.
I agree! If we go in with the "Take what's ours" mindset...ain't nobody beating dem Heels!!!The Heels are definitely peaking at the right time. They have to be ready to play from the opening tip. If they do that and play up to their capability, they will be heading to Houston next weekend.
Go Heels!
Notre Dame hasn't scored 80 or more points in any game in the tournament. Carolina has scored at least 80 in every game. If the Heels control the tempo, they win.
I also think every team that makes the final four goes through a game where they just don't play particularly well and have to play through it and find a way to win it at the end. We've had less than par halves, but been in relative control in each game. Have a feeling this will be one of those games.
You guys definitely got screwed by the refs in the end. Horrible.As a Badger fan,North Carolina will not have any problems...I predict you guys by 20+ . Wisconsin was the better team against N.D.
I hope you guys give it to them!!!
Put yourself in ND shoes: "they gave us a win on our home court a long time ago ... and then they destroyed us on a neutral court 2 weeks ago." If anyone should be anxious, it's ND. They know they're out manned and out coached.
You guys definitely got screwed by the refs in the end. Horrible.
Um, no. ND will have to play a great game to win, but they sure as hell don't believe that non-sense. Especially up until the last game they've owned the Carolina teams. Whether it was home, away, or neutral. Chill with that talk. UNC is a great team with tremendous talent and depth, but let's not get carried away.
I expect UNC to win as they've been flawless in the tourney, but no surprise on my end of ND wins. They've proven they belong.
Funny. I thought PWNED is being down by 40, could've been 50 if we didn't call off the dogs., and losing by 31. Just two weeks ago. But that's just how I look at it.Owned? You've been in the ACC for 2 years. You are 3-3 vs us since then. You also haven't beaten us by more than 10 points in that time. Your definition of "owning" isn't what many in the ACC's is. In fact, I don't know of any other teams that would say that either.
Not going to predict a large blowout tonight, but I do think you will go the way of the Indiana fans that came here a few days ago.
