did you try the march madness link i put

Yes I did. It wouldn't let me proceed without signing into a provider. The March Madness app is working for me.

Better win this game

 

[Sherm Sticky]

Wow screwed over. A 5 and have to play Princeton. I smell a 12 over 5 upset

Damn it's tough to be such a good prophet.

I told you all Princeton would be tough!

Lucky to escape with a win!

That was not fun to watch.

The boys weathered the first storm and found a way to advance. Now reshuffle the deck and let's fkn go. Per usual, ND gets everyone's best.

Did watching ND the last 8 minutes not feel exactly like watching a Brian Kelly football team? Besides the W, of course.

Ha, I did think this more than once in the second half.....

The bar I watched the game in was 100% pro-Princeton besides me and one coworker despite the fact that they were all wearing Maryland and Virginia garb. I promise you zero of those fuckers went to Princeton. I proudly wore a 2015 Shanrock Series jersey and boisterously clapped in some faces when Princeton clanked that last 3. Too bad UNC Wilmington couldn't get it done, and go Xavier.

Didn't we get a picture of him from the 2015 FB ND/UVA game?...

There are UVA fans in Nova now? I guess everyone is moving there...

When I was living there neither UVA nor UMD registered at all.

When I go anywhere on Earth UVA nor UMD register at all.

For accuracy... let's be real tho, it was all just ND haters...

just like whenever Duke plays bars will be filled with un-athletic, dumb white people who will be throwing more passion into anything they have in their lives at hating all over very athletic and smart white people.

Irish are a 3 point dog (opened +2.5) against WVU. I like this team as the underdog better than in games like today.

 

[NDGOLDEN]

I was at the game today. Wow what a heart ache. Bonzie looked like he was in pain at times. Defiantly was near 75% then 100%. Beach and vast shooting 4-21 is just horrible. To get a win with them doing so bad is good and not to jinx it but whenever beach has had an off game he comes back next game strong and we are gonna need it against WVU.
WVU looked pretty solid on offense but bucknell iant very strong on defense. WVU def- bucknell was breakong their press quite easily at periods of the game. They are defiantly vulnerable.
Its gonna be a great game. If we keep TO under 12ish I like when win.

Just remember we played pretty shitty in the first round in 2015 and 2016 as well. March is all about surviving and advancing; they definitely survived today.

Yeah, take a win however you can get it.

What I'm worried about is that Colson looked nowhere close to 100%.

Ya seeing it live he defiantly was lacking drive and he did a horrible job at rebounding. Had zero bounce in his jump

 

[NDShark]

Do we have a time for Saturday yet?

Also...UVa basketball "fans" are hilarious. I watched them fill up a divey sports bar 2 (?) years ago when UVa played Duke at home. The # of wine glasses was...too damn high! They went nuts at every lay up and promptly filtered out as soon as Duke had it in hand.

Lol at the wine glass observation....

Still waiting on a tip time tonight. I hope more Irish fans in the area turn out the the game. I know that it was a brutal noon Thursday start, but hopefully a prime time Saturday night game will bring more Irish fans out. West Virginia certainly brought their fans today.

it's another noon start

12:10 start Saturday

Put the kids to bed by 9:00 Coach.

Colson not 100% is the most concerning. WVU will likely take him completely out of the game and dare Vasturia, Farrell & Beachem to beat them.

The WVU defense will give Vasturia fits. He really struggles turning the ball over whether it's ball handling or passing. Hopefully he can regain his stroke from the UVA game b/c it's been missing behind the arc most of the season.

 

[PANDFAN]

VJ is the most streaky player....my goodness....he doesn't play to his potential most nights and it is frustrating

What? Vasturia is one of our best players handling the ball. He barley turns it over. His average for the season is 1.6 per game. Thats great!

This - Steve is a rock. His shooting has been for shit lately but his ball handling is so good he has essentially acted as PG frequently the last four years. When Farrell gets too loosey goosey or we want to free him up for shots off the ball - SV will frequently bring the ball up, run the point for a few possessions.

They need to keep him on ice all day today and shoot him full of cortisone tomorrow at about 11:45am, and then again at halftime.

If Bonzie looks like he did against Princeton, WVU is gonna have a field day on the glass.

Exactly if anything I'm more nervous for Farrell and Gibbs bringing the ball up.

All of our players can dribble so I'm not worried at all.
