BrianKellyWasNotTheMan 12 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 I know I'm usually a Debbie downer, but this has only beatten 1 rank team correct? Can't exactly count Michigan St. their tanking fast. But Purdue just beat Iowa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishrush 60 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Tough game right now vs NC St. We were down 18 now back and forth down 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianKellyWasNotTheMan 12 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Well, last 5/7 games we've been down 10+. If I'm not mistaken all against non ranked teams. Eventually, this would bite us in our butts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irishrb 0 Posted January 26, 2015 Author Share Posted January 26, 2015 That's a huge freakin' win for this team. They are absolutely resilient and Grant is a star. Down 18 on the road to have the confidence and composure to come back and take a game like this in OT is awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OKCIrish99 3 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Great victory @ NC State in ot. Love this team. Great guard play. The arena will be nuts Wednesday when Duke comes to town. Go Irish!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morgandonor 30 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 This is the acc...unranked teams are gonna play tough in this conference...us coming back to win is a good thing....what you should worry about is when we play lights out and lose. This team is very good, will they beat a Kentucky team most likely not. They play good basketball and I will bet my pay check Kentucky doesn't want to play us at home right now....it is hard as hell to win at ND even when we stink. We are good right now let's just enjoy it instead of always pointing out the negatives. All teams have negatives that's easy to point out. Enjoy it ladies and gentlemen. This could be a fun ride.

irishrush 60 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 NC St beat Duke a couple weeks ago. They were a talented young team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OKCIrish99 3 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Unbelievable win.It really was. I thought they were toast for awhile. That 3 Connaughton hit was HUGE. At NCSU is always hostile too. Wednesday night should be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wednesday night should be fun. Yes. We had multiple chances to lose that game and just kept hanging in there. That 3 was huge as was the frantic tip in.

cavic 2 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 What I enjoy the most is seeing how coach Brey has developed. Many of you can probably remember those Brey teams that played no defense and he was very unemotional. This team will contest every shot they can and I think they feed off an emotional Brey. It wasn't as good as Van Gorders but a good first pump at the end of regulation! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ObieKnobbe 47 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Unbelievable win by the Irish, maybe their most impressive this year! They were 1-11 from 3 point range and down 18 at one point and dug deep on d and won this game with sheer will. These are the games that tell you what kind of team you got and boys we got a hella good team. Duke is shitting their pants to come to our house I guarantee it. Jerian Grant will play in the NBA, Ice Cold.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LasVegasIrish 0 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 This team's resiliency is simply amazing. Confidence grows on me daily that this could be the Brey team that makes a run in the tourney. Probably his most talented and athletic teams, and even though he plays 7 guys for the most part it's also one of his deepest teams. And even with all that said, they might be the most fun team to watch in the country. They aren't your typical athletic team that throws up bricks. Buckle up guys, this could be special.

Hell, if this team makes it to the elite 8 I'll be happy. I felt the same way a few years ago, when we beat Uconn on the road. That same Uconn team who won a NC. Just up in the air about getting to excited, when Brey hasn't taken a team passed the sweet 16. Well, maybe he has but it's hasn't been in at least 10 years.

Donjuan 16 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I think we play better away than we do at home, or at least for this season. Huge game though and ND just beat two teams on the road that absolutely destroyed Duke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
