The Elite Eight: Our Opponents Finished Perfect
Think about this...
Last year in our Elite Eight game with Kentucky -- we had the lead in the 2nd half and the following happened:
- Kentucky did not miss a shot in the last six minutes of the game to beat us
Last night in our Elite Eight game with North Carolina -- we had the lead in the 2nd half and the following happened:
- North Carolina scored on 19 of their last 20 offensive possessions to beat us

Sneak Peek: Mike Brey's Pre Game Pep Talk
"ONE GAME... If we played them seven times -- they might beat us three.
BUT NOT TONIGHT!
TONIGHT -- WE ARE THE GREATEST COLLEGE BASKETBALL TEAM IN AMERICA."
The world has forgotten we've won 3 of the 6 games we've played against North Carolina since we've joined the ACC -- including 3 of the last 4.
WHY NOT AGAIN TONIGHT!

Stephen F. Austin State's Starters and Key Subs
Notre Dame takes on Stephen F. Austin State University this afternoon at 2:40 PM ET on CBS -- for a spot in next weekend's SWEET SIXTEEN. To get us ready for today's big ballgame -- I thought I'd do a little research on the Lumberjacks...
STARTING LINE-UP
F: WALKUP -- 6'-4" / SENIOR
F: HOLYFIELD -- 6'-7" / FRESHMAN
G: FLOYD -- 5'-11" / SENIOR
G: PINKNEY -- 5'-9" / SENIOR
G: CHARLES -- 6'-5" / SOPHOMORE
KEY SUBSTITUTES
F: GEFFRARD -- 6'-5" / JUNIOR
G: CAMERON -- 6'-3" / JUNIOR
G: JOHNSON -- 6'-0" / SENIOR
F: WILLIAMS -- 6'-7" / JUNIOR
What to watch out for against Stephen F. Austin State:
- Walkup shot 20 free throws against WVU -- making 19. Do we have anyone strong enough to handle him? I'm guessing Vasturia gets this assignment.
- SFA likes to PRESS YOU (BIG TIME) on defense -- all day long. They turned WVU over 22 times while only turning it over 7 times themselves -- THIS WILL BE THE KEY TO THE GAME. Stephen F. Austin led the nation this season in forcing TURNOVERS -- at 18.73 per game
- I am guessing Mike Brey will start Matt Farrell again -- to handle the press defense of Stephen F. Austin.
Key stat of the game: Stephen F. Austin only made 31% of their shots -- yet they still beat West Virginia 70 - 56.
Stephen F. Austin is the hottest team in the tournament (they are not a 14 seed) -- they have not lost a game in 2016 -- winning their last 21 games.

Notre Dame Plays North Carolina @ 7 PM ET
The ACC Semi-Final game will be televised Friday night on ESPN beginning at 7 PM ET.
Watching the post game coverage -- the Fighting Irish are not getting any credit for beating North Carolina a few weeks ago...
Final 8 Minutes -- Irish Down 15 -- WIN GAME!
Here's how Notre Dame came back from 15 points down with just over 8 minutes to go!
ND's Mike Brey is Now 5 - 1 vs. Duke's Coach K
Folks, I will admit I didn't believe...
Notre Dame was down 16 points in the second half to Duke -- yet, the Fighting Irish came back to tie the game and send it into OT -- winning 84 - 79 to advance to tomorrow vs. North Carolina.
WOW!
The win -- Notre Dame's fifth over Duke in six ACC games since the Irish joined the ACC three years ago -- puts Mike Brey now 5 - 1 vs. his mentor Coach K. No other Duke assistant has beaten Coach K --- think about that...
The Naismith HS National Player of the Year!
Is none other than Jackie Young from Princeton High School (Princeton, IN) -- a member of Notre Dame's incoming recruiting class! Erin Boley -- Jackie's future teammate at ND was one of the five finalists for this honor!
Muffet just reloads!
Jackie is the third Notre Dame women's basketball player to earn this honor -- Skylar Diggins in 2009 and Michelle Marciniak in 1991 (who transferred to Tennessee after one season).
Congratulations Jackie!
