Monday games: ND @ NC State, Oregon @ OSU

"Best offense is UConn" Debbie Antonelli, for all of you who think she's anti-UConn

ND is great in transition but they might be more susceptible to losing this year in the tournament because Arike has seemed to play into trying to live up to the game-winners hype. She doesn’t know when to stop shooting even when she’s 5-20. They are too talented around her for her to keep shooting when she’s not hitting.

But yesterday, she claimed that Oregon had the best offense in the country. She & Andy Landers flip flop every week.

People here thinks she's Anti-UConn?

End of 3rd quarter...75-59, Notre Dame rolling.

 

[SECbbfan24]

It seems like 90% of ND's points are all transition points

 

[Vowelguy]

Rutgers EN FUEGO scoring 12 points in the last 3 minutes of 3rd. 45-44 Hoosiers.

 

[nwhoopfan]

I think it's over anyway, but wow that last sequence. NC State tried to throw a lob entry pass, clanked it off the rim, ND gets out in transition and gets a bucket as the quarter ends.

 

[triaddukefan]

That fan is so amusing

 

[bbballfan23]

This might be nit picking but does anyone else notice how unenthusiastic ND players seem to be on the court when someone else on their team makes a great play? Mabrey makes a great pass to Young who barely beats the buzzer and Marina just runs back to the bench. Doesn’t congratulate her teammate. There might be bigger problems going on this year for ND that no one knows about.

NC State doing nearly everything in its power to make Notre Dame look better than they are now.
Pass attempt bangs off the rim (!) and serves as an outlet pass for the fast break to beat the 3Q buzzer.
Time to switch to the Big Ten Network.

I hear him too. He's way too loud. Someone on ESPN's staff should get him to shut up!

No, she said they were the best offense & Collier was the number 1 pick yesterday. But I agree with Landers.

Arike ran right to her? Mabrey is in the zone tonight. I don't think chemistry is an issue with this team.

Subtext: "But defense wins championships." As they say in the SEC.

I guess I’m just used to UConn and everyone running to one another after a great play. You’re probably right.

I'm a little behind, but me too. This has turned into a layup drill for ND. State has packed it in.

Yeah, there really isn't...unless they are going to a lot of trouble on instagram to make people think they like each other

 

[bbballfan23]

Make ND play in the halfcourt and they are very average. Not many teams can get back on them, though. Top 5 teams will be more disciplined and have the fire power to stop it, I believe.

 

[LETTERL]

Timeout NC State...6:46 left. Irish blowing out NC State, 84-59.

Notre Dame shooting 56% from the floor...and with 33 fast break points to 0 for NC State.

Haha you might be right.

we will have to agree to disagree on that one

 

[Undercovervol]

Did anyone else hear Pam Ward say, "Well that escalated quickly!" Lol, Notre Dame dominating now. NC State doesn't know how to get back in transition.

 

[Plebe]

Perhaps a politically incorrect question, but I'm really curious:

How much money is spent by the schools and/or apparel companies to produce special pink uniforms?

 

[bbballfan23]

A lot of UConn fans won’t like this outcome but this ND blowout helps strengthen our resume. ND winning out & beating Louisville helps us & will help us avoid ND until the FF.

I'm slightly curious about that, but it has to be a drop in the bucket compared to how much money is involved w/ some football teams that have umpteen different alternate uniforms.

 

[bbballfan23]

Arike just does so many things that makes you shake your head. Turns it over & walks back.

 

[Vowelguy]

Wow after the 8.5 minute drought, RU is back, scoring 22 in the next 8 minutes and now lead 54-51.

We talking football or basketball?

I believe in playing good defense but the reality is the game has changed and you have to be able to score to win games. Its becoming more offensive rounded. Good teams will find ways to score no matter how good the defense is.

Our own HC should take note.
