#10 Notre Dame Handles #21 Michigan

Oklahoma Talks 44 Point Loss to Notre Dame

 

Truly impressed with how Oklahoma's head coach handled the media after this difficult moment for her team at home...

Record Setting Night for Irish in Norman, OK

Niele Ivey's #5 seeded Fighting Irish put an offensive show tonight on the home court of the #4 seeded Oklahoma Sooners -- putting up a 108 to 64 NCAA Tournament win!

Advancing Notre Dame to the SWEET SIXTEEN!

As far as all-time NCAA records:

  • Notre Dame's 35 point half time lead was the largest in women's NCAA history for a lower seed against a higher seed.
  • First team in NCAA Tournament history (Men or Women) to beat a higher seeded team by 40+ points

 As far as all-time Notre Dame records:

  • Most points scored in the first quarter of NCAA tournament game -- 35
  • Most points scored in a NCAA tournament game:  108

OT: With the IRISH Out, I'm Rooting for BONA

 

My attention will now be turning to St. Bonaventure Men's Basketball -- as they have moved on to the ELITE EIGHT in the N.I.T. after beating Oklahoma last night.

They now play Virginia Tuesday night -- with the winner moving on to Madison Square Garden for the Final Four...

Go Bonnies!
