For those that are new to the game and others that have forgotten it is requested that discussions other than prognostications of the game should be posted on other threads that your discussion pertains to. If you wish to prognosticate your prediction that is okay if you post your score. The winner/s will be posted soon after the game’s completion.
UConn is on the road to South Bend, IN to play against the dreaded Irish of Notre Dame. Last year with the team playing shorthanded and collapsing in the 4th quarter after getting back in it in the third period. Yes, Nika fouled out, but some of those calls to me were questionable. ND has the most wins against UConn under Geno’s watch with UConn holding the advantage 38-15. The Irish currently has a 2-game winning streak that Paige and company want to stop. I believe that this will be their second toughest game of the season and just like the South Carolina game it's on the oppositions court. ND is currently 7-2 with playing 3 ranked teams. Winning against #3 USC on the road 74-61 and at home against #4 Texas 80-70. Losing to #17 TCU 76-68 and to unranked Utah 78-67 on a neutral court at the Cayman Island Classic. Six of their eight players average over 25 minutes a game with their other 2 averaging 14 and 5 minutes.
All predictions and any changes must be submitted by 6:45 PM Eastern. Any submitted after the cut-off will not be accepted.

- The winner must be named, either UConn/Huskies or Norte Dame/Irish. No predictions like "85-55 the good guys", will be accepted if there isn't a winner stated.
- If prior to the closing of the Prognosticator’s Predictions, you wish to change your prognostication you must submit a new prediction by stating that you wish to change your previous prediction and provide the post number of the original post. If the request for change is submitted prior to the closing of accepted predictions, you will receive a "like" letting you know that it was accepted and changed.
- If someone believes that they have been missed, or someone notices that another fellow Prognosticator has been by the gamekeeper, then it must be brought to the gamekeeper's attention within 24 hours of the posting of the winner(s) game thread.
- This game may be one of the closest so far this season, I believe that UConn will play between 8 to 10 players, and everyone will score. UConn 80 – Norte Dame 65.
