It's On to the NCAA Tournament For Our IRISH


Having played a little basketball in my day -- I can tell you I wouldn't want to play against Louisville.  Full court pressure -- for the entire game -- that's not fun for the guys handling the ball.  And, if you watched last night's game -- that relentless defense wore our guys down.

It's time to put that game in the rear view mirror and on to the NCAA...

ND will find out tomorrow night -- who they play and where they play.  Can't wait!

Here's a link to the post game press conference after ND's 69 - 57 loss to #4 Louisville -- and ESPN's coverage:
