UK's size might exert its will on ND in the second half. It's not even really boxing out because I think the Irish were pretty good there...it's just the sheer size.
Brey needs to play the second half in four minute segments.

Why are the refs so against UNC and KY in every game? I mean, KY and UNC have never once committed a foul, but, somehow, fouls get called on them. Unreal! Just ask anyone on RR or THR.
Kentucky knows they're in a game. ND isn't playing dead for them. I would s--t a brick if they could pull this off and send Big Blue Nation into a meltdown. Go Irish!

It's actually not that bad. There have been a few questionable calls....most notably on Auguste.
Besides the second foul call on Auguste....no, I don't think it's been bad.
The he second half needs to see some ND jumpers find the net. The first five minutes are huge.
He's not the only one, Pisgah. It seems to be trendy to pick against Duke. These people are foolishly equating this team to the teams that lost to Lehigh and Mercer.

Holy moly! ND is throwing it down against the 'Cats! Have they got the UK fans attention yet? It got Ashley Judd to get up from our seat!

One more thing...the Irish might have to look at doubling in the post. They can't let Towns score that easy.
That's the only thing they haven't done well. If they're able to get the ball out of his hands, the odds improve for them.

They also need to put more pressure on the passer and do better work early on towns. He's a bull, but he always comes back over that left shoulder. I think auguste is starting to catch on. Just keep him a couple extra feet out
I have to admit that made me laugh when she stood up then immediately say back down and out her head down lolOriginally posted by OldasdirtDevil:

If ND were to pull this out there's a whole crap load of posters on here who will have to eat their words LOL. I'm pulling hard for them.
Dang....if that Connaughton three could have dropped would have been huge.
Big four minutes coming up here. We're to the point of this game being played in segments.

I think Towns must've gone to the Harrison twins' School of Incredulous Looks After Every Foul Call.
Yes, the pucker string is drawing up! ND has had a couple of good looks from 3 that didn't go down. If they can connect on a couple the pressure will ratchet up a few notches.

Big basket by Jackson, ND needed that. The Irish may be showing signs of a little fatigue. Need to make some plays to get their adrenaline going. Go Notre Dame!

Coach Cal looked clueless as he looked to his bench to see if he should call a timeout. Did anybody else catch that?
Yeah, those last 2 misses from the ft line hurt. Can't leave any points off the board if you're going to slay the giant.
