Interesting to me that we’re favored in this game, still, with all we’ve missed and now Johnson being out. Not to mention this game is.

Nonetheless, we’re currently favored by four points. Game time is slated for a 9pm est tip and the game will air on ESPN.

Duke - 72

Notre Dame - 70

GO DUKE!!!!!!!!!!!

Going to be a battle, especially without Johnson. If we can finally have a good shooting game, we should win. Time for Moore and Baker to step up and help Hurt out!! Duke by a half dozen!!!

Home court doesn't mean much without fans so our guys will be OK. I'm looking for continuing improvement from Roach and perhaps this is the game that Moore comes back to where we saw him at the end of last year.

Vegas clearly does not have a good grasp on this team yet… I don’t think we have covered yet as I believe we have been favored in every game.

I do think JJ being out give some other guys a chance to develop and shine hopefully we find a way to win.

Duke finds a way. I hope to see a scrappy, gutty performance to set the tone for the rest of ACC play....whatever that looks like. For nobody OTHER than Moore, I hope tonight is the night he breaks out of his funk.

Duke 72
ND 65

Isnt Notre Dame down to 7 scholarship players? If it’s close in the first half, I’d press all second half. Kentucky almost beat them because I think Notre Dame ran outta gas.

actually, just press the whole game! That’s been our more effective way of generating offense

I agree with this 100%. In all our games so far our best offense has come from the press. We had MI State and Illinois rattled in the second half and made runs to keep us in striking distance. Use the bench, press for 35 minutes. Disrupt their offense.

I agree, especially since we don’t have a define starting 5, let’s go the hockey route and rotate fresh bodies throughout the regular season and hope that experience pays off in the post season (if there is one).

This historically has been a game we win, as our backs are against the wall. But who knows this year. Even without JJ we have the talent to win. I think we win. And Baker lighting it up sure would help. So I'll go with:
Duke: 78
ND: 72

We’ve got nothing to lose. We have basically 6 guard/wings if we include Brake here and 4 bigs. Let it fly pressing all night. In fact it might even help us with our guys being able to play off instinct rather than thinking so much.

I like K's three quarter court press. I say GO FOR IT!!! OFC

I feel like we lose by a lot. We haven’t even been competitive in the second half vs. the good teams we played.

ND 80
Duke 63

I just don’t see this team altogether especially with only four games and two being loses and the two wins to inferior opponents. Add Johnson into the mix with Moore’s confidence way down and it spells disaster.

I’m just looking to see if we can put together a competent offense for at least a 5 minute stretch. Is that too much to ask?

Basically what I was going to post....this offense has been so bad all year it's almost embarrassing with the talent we had coming in

I’m going with Duke in a close one. We have to defend the arc. ND can shoot the three ball.

Duke: 67
ND: 62

Let’s go Duke!!

Great start. New unit coming in Duke should pressure ND guards more. Late in the UK game their pg was a turnover bad decision king, allowing UK to come back
