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!
GO IRISH!

And, the folks in Carolina Blue (THOUSANDS OF THEM) are already making their reservations for next weekend in Houston...
NOT SO FAST!
They might beat us nine times out of ten -- but not this Easter Sunday at 8:49 PM ET...
We will find a way!
PS: I wonder if Roy Williams will wear his Notre Dame pin?

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.
