How does Auguste have zero rebounds? That's our main weakness this year as far as I've seen. Our only consistent guy at getting to the boards is Connaughton...a guard. Auguste needs to step it up rebounding if we want to compete with the best. Doesn't have to be a world beater....just competitive on the glass. I see he's in foul trouble but still...zero rebounds???

Watching with the volume muted because the second announcer is absolutely horrific. He sounds like Teddy Atlas calling Friday Night Fights.

Agree with you, the announcer sucks

Haha, I've actually enjoyed it. It's like a game inside the game. By my count, he's named the wrong Irish player when giving commentary about 15 times so far.

Probably the worst announced game I've ever heard lol. HS football announcers are better than these guys

Pretty sad they are commenting about Pat should not have taken a wide open shot and Brey was upset. Guys have no clue about basketball....and Cremins is a former coach!! Good thing he doesn't coach anymore.

Eh for as bad as Cremins was, he was right on Connaughton taking those shots. Way too early in the shot clock. Pretty uncharacteristic offensive game that they still managed to score 83 in.

Good win. Nice comeback. Grant with one of the greatest dunks I have ever seen... I will agree with Cremins, too early in shot clock for those shots.

Made it way harder on ourselves than it needed to be. That said this should build character for the upcoming ACC slate. Lets the guys know it is going to be a tough grind in conference and are going to have to play a lot better going forward. This was an essential win with UNC, Virginia, and Duke right around the corner.

Nice win in a game in which the Irish played poorly for most of it. Just one of those days when shots weren't really falling from the outside (until OT) And the offense looked out of sync at times. The big issue continues to be how are we going to get rebounds? This team could really make some noise if they could figure that out.

Fun game to watch today.

So next week, we're at #19 UNC on Monday night and then home vs. #3 Virginia. 1-1 wouldn't be bad.

UNC playing Clemson on ESPN now, earlier today UVA won at Miami by 9. I agree on going 1-1 over the next couple. UVA is better than UNC but we have to travel to Chapel Hill and get UVA at home.

The UVA game went into Double OT as well. Better team pulled out but the Canes gave them a run for their money. I feel a good shooting night from the Irish can get them a win on Saturday. Playing at UNC will be tough with their rebounding bigs.

I just saw the beginning and final score of the UVA game. They looked good early, I had no idea they went to OT as well.

Should be #12 on Monday with Nova and Iowa St losing. Going to be a very interesting week with UNC and Virginia on tap. 0-2, and we're back to 20-25. 1-1 and we stay the same. 2-0, and we make a Top-5 push.

I put this on my Facebook page and it has been shared 40 times and there are over 200 comments. This is a top 5 game dunk of all time. You are looking at history.

This team is fun to watch. If Auguste stays out of foul trouble I think 4th place in the ACC with a 3 or 4 seed in the tournament is very possible.
