Biggest Game of the Year for Notre Dame!
Muffet's Fighting Irish, the top seed in the ACC Tournament, take on the Louisville Cardinals -- a team ranked just ahead of Notre Dame in the national rankings today in Greensboro. The winner takes home the ACC crown and probably the coveted Chicago Region of next week's NCAA Tournament!
The game tips off at NOON ET today -- remember, we "sprung ahead" one hour with the clock's last night!
The game will be televised on ESPN2.
GO IRISH!
Michigan State -- "Scoreless in South Bend!"

Kevin Corrigan's Fighting Irish have beaten #2 Maryland and now #8 Denver in back-to-back games -- which should move Notre Dame up from its current #10 national ranking!

Notre Dame Competes for National Title Tonight
The Notre Dame Men's Distance Medley Relay team competes tonight at 10:02 PM ET for the NCAA National Championship! In the photo above that's Dylan Jacobs, Yared Nuguse, Sean Carlson (coach), Wayne Pate (coach), Sam Voelz and Edward Cheatham.
The Fighting Irish go into tonight's race with the fastest time in the country and the 2nd fastest time in NCAA history!
Last year, Notre Dame finished 2nd in this event at the NCAA Indoor Track & Field National Championship.
Here's the reality -- Notre Dame's time (2nd fastest all-time) is only 3 seconds faster than the slowest team in the Final Heat -- so this is going to be quite a race!
It's Event #10 tonight -- here's the teams Notre Dame is competing with: FINAL HEATS
Here's how a Distance Medley Relay is run:
- Dylan Jacobs (FR) runs 1200 meters
- Edward Cheatham (SR) runs 400 meters
- Sam Voelz (SO) runs 800 meters
- Yared Nuguse (SO) runs 1600 meters
