North Carolina vs. Notre Dame: 5 Irish players scored in double figures to upset the second-ranked Tar Heels, 80-76. Bonzie Colson and Zach Auguste both had double doubles for the Irish. Marcus Paige led North Carolina with 21. Notre Dame fans stormed the court after the game.
Down by 15, not hitting hardly any threes, while NC was making theirs,
ND outrebounded and outhustled them, and forced turnovers for NDs
seventh win at home over a top ten team in last 8 years.
Brey and ND BBall at home delivers again.
A great win. This season has been disappointing, considering they won the ACC last year and took Kentucky to the wire in the Elite 8 game last year. Maybe they can build off this. They are capable of beating good teams, and they typically aren’t losing games by large margins. They just need to close out games better and make sure they get their shots down.
