Prognosticators Game 8 -Notre Dame- Predictions

Floppers get ONO into early foul trouble, meaning major minutes for Aubrey.
Big mistake - Aubrey goes off.
UConn 83-59
 
It’s not a question of who wins (UConn 82-70) but how many stupid and disrespectful comments will MM make in the postgame presser...my guess is 3. :rolleyes:

BTW where is @meyers7 smarty pants prediction so I can keep posting my :mad: at it and keep our mojo going?;)

MM has rallied her team twice to beat ranked opponents (Michigan and USF). Gotta give the devil her due and be ready for a well-prepared Irish team that plays above their heads on Sunday. Gonna be a tough battle, all the way.

UConn 75 ND 71

Seton Hall got up for us. You have to believe MM's troops will also have something to prove. Put Griffin in Sammy's face, everybody keep moving their feet and don't let the ball touch the floor.
 
I must admit that I’m s little surprised that some posters believe this game might come down to the final minutes, and this inexperienced ND team can hang with the Huskies for 4 quarters. I’ve been following ND since the beginning of the season. I’ve examined the box score of every game. This is not your father’s traditional ND team. This team will not hit 13 3’s tomorrow.

They lost 4 games in November, and one to Minnesota on Dec 4. This 5-5 team is not that good. They may keep it close for the opening minutes, but UConn will begin to gradually pull away..............unless UConn comes out hard and fast and puts them in a 20+ point hole in the first quarter. Liv needs to announce/establish her dominance from the tip, and stay on the floor.

UConn will be the best team they’ve played to this point. The highest ranked team they’ve played is #16 Michigan State. They lost that one 72-69.

UConn will have several things in their favor tomorrow. Home court (Gampel), crowd energy, the students are still on campus, a more experienced roster, and a more experienced bench, riding a 7 game win streak (momentum).

I’m going to go Dennis Green here. They are who we think they are, only we’re not letting them off the hook. We’re going to play UConn basketball, protect our house, keep our home win streak alive, and play like we’re on national TV.

UConn May lose a home game this year, but it won’t be to a rebuilding ND team. I also don’t look for Muffet to go deep into her bench.

UConn 83
ND 57

I like j66kicker's final score. May be a tad high, but I'll go wih him. I still wonder how MM managed to put ND so far in the hole.

Hi Rocky, nice to have you back. You were missed.
 
Since this is not a National Semifinal game, I give the edge—and a victory—to UConn, 74-69.

Oh man, tough one. UCONN has had a lot of trouble with ND over the years. And right before exams. Not sure UCONN will be concentrating on this game. ND on national TV? I'm thinking ND squeeks this one out, 71-69.
 
85-60 Uconn. Got to show Paige and Paith what it's all about.

Rocky!!!! This has made my day! Hope all is well with you! Happy Holidays my old Friend, Happy Holidays! :)
 
No score prediction. Naturally, I hope and expect that UConn will win. I just wish they weren't playing at the same time as the Patriots. For the second time.
