Followed on gamecast and through Rich. Loved how I saw GTOWN PLAYER turnover every other second. Not a good effort against a team that you cut your turnovers in half against you win by 6 to 8 points. I didn't even watch the game, but can see that from the stats.

Interested to see if this team can refocus one more time, because they have been spiraling down to this kind of effort for the last couple of games. Still have a chip (although shared) in front of you. We really pissed away our chance to be solo champs with the loss against Sfla. Should have never happened, but I will not rehash old themes. Proud that the team has gone on this great run, but now they really have to focus on playing good basketball again and not just "grinding" out wins. Have to man up and come out and play aggressive and smart basketball. Get back to actual defense and not hacking because the refs are going to call us for hacks.

What team shows up on Saturday? The one that showed up after the Sfla loss and pounded ND at their place, or the one that showed up at home against Pitt and got violated. I sure hope it is the Notre Dame version, although I really don't know.

One thing I do know is that they continue to take us on a great ride. Just hope the effort today will get everyone keenly focused on how they have to play to win in March.
