#3 ND vs. #14 Northeastern Game Thread (Round 1)

[NDPhilly]

I hate the Grant iso / dribble in place for 15 seconds / take contested 3 sooooooo god damn much every time we do it

 

[Irish#1]

We're taking it all the way down and settling for bad shots.

 

[Crazy Balki]

Smh, D the f*ck up!!!!

 

[NDgradstudent]

This is now the third time this half ND has been up 11 or 12 and then suddenly only up by 4 or 5. C'mon guys, finish it off.

Agreed. He hit it against duke a few times early in the year but im cussing at the tv the whole time its happening, its awful

 

[Crazy Balki]

They can't buy a rebound out there.

 

[FearTheBeard]

Wtf. Lets choke in the last 2 minutes after being up 10

 

[dang227]

No freaking box out

 

[aubeirish]

This lack of success on the defensive board is not fun to watch.

 

[Crazy Balki]

REBOUND!!!!!!!

 

[Irish#1]

Auguste needs to keep his body on Etherton

 

[dang227]

What a poor performance on the glass.

 

[Irish#1]

They can't buy a rebound out there.

They're standing around. That's why.

 

[dang227]

This is why I kept telling myself not to get excited about a masterbreytor led team

 

[Irishman77]

wow we got lucky

 

[ShawneeIrish]

That was terrifying.

 

[ACamp1900]

Dude,... I Fvkin hate basketball...

I was so ready for a three at the buzzer...

 

[Irish#1]

I can't believe we didn't get dinged for a foul.

 

[Irishman77]

a scrappy win early is good for us...

 

[GATTACA!]

I can't believe we didn't get dinged for a foul.

I can't listen at school so im just watching and i was shocked there ended up being no whistle.

 

[ulukinatme]

Sorry guys, I started watching the last few minutes of the game. I won't do that again.

 

[NDgradstudent]

Survive and advance is all you need to do, but this team better figure out how to rebound just a little bit before the next game. Out-rebounded 33-17 today. 13-2 on the offensive end. I know its been bad, but not usually this bad.

 

[JD Irish]

What a terrible game. This was so disappointing. I have no confidence going against either Butler or Texas.

 

[dang227]

We won't win another playing like this.

 

[returnofthemack]

lol these scrubs outrebounded us by 16 and we won by 4 while shooting 57% Glad I made one homer bracket with ND going to the Elite 8 and a realistic one with ND losing in the second round, as is tradition.

 

[Crazy Balki]

Bad bad bad BAD game overall, outside of Auguste in the paint offensively. Bad defense and HORRIBLE rebounding. Wins a win though, but my confidence in beating either Tex or Butler just took a major blow.

 

[Irish#1]

a scrappy win early is good for us...

That wasn't scrappy. We had control of the game and with 4 mins to go decided to stand around, milk the clock and settle for bad shots.

I thought for sure they were going to rain a 3 to win.

Hoping they now have the jitters out of their system and are ready to play.

 

[bkess8]

Survive and advance, hopefully they play better the next one or they will be going home.

Oh ye of little faith and good judgment

Let's hope this doens't carry over. UCONN needed OT to win last year in Round 1. Sh!t happens, although my confidence in them took a hit.
