ND hoops at the Cuse

No friendship for 40 minutes during Notre Dame game tonight

The Game is at the Carrier Dome for a 7:00 p.m. tipoff on Tuesday, Jan. 30. The game will be televised live on ESPNU.

I don't know if losing on the road is a Big East thing or a ND thing?

Home teams went 6-1 in BIG EAST men's basketball action on Jan. 27. Providence pulled out the only road win of the afternoon as it knocked off Connecticut, 84-72 at the Hartford Civic Center.


Can the ND Mens Basketball team win on the road? Of course they can, but will they?

The Irish start a 3 game stretch on the road. Tonight will be a tough game at Syracuse, where the Irish don't win very often. The next two are a bit easier, but they are still on the road. South Florida is on Saturday and DePaul will be on Feb. 8.

ND has lost 14 of 17 road games in the BIG-EAST. This is not the way a team gets things done. The Villanova game the other day was a great win, but the team turned the ball over too much and shooting was horrendous. If the Irish would like to stay in the game tonight, that cannot happen.

The Orange have a strong D and block shots well. ND will need to play better to stay alive in the Big-East.

The one thing the Irish have is they are holding opponents to a .415 shooting percentage.

The D will have to step up tonight in order to get off the schnide and win a game on the road.

In order to find his equal, an Irishman is *forced* to talk to God.
