What streak is that? I thought the Irish have won the last 3 meetings.

| That charge against the Turner was bullshit. There was no way that player was set. Not even close.

| Patberg looks pretty relaxed for being put on the spot like this. If she can stay healthy, she definitely looks like a player.

Thanks for agreeing!
Maybe the foul trouble on Lindsay Allen will help the development of Ali and Jackie.

She's been dealt a tough hand. Missed her whole freshman campaign because she injured herself just before the season started. Had a tough rehab and just was able to practice as the season began and then contracted walking pneumonia. Sure hope she shines now...

Allen can't get in foul trouble. Things just aren't good without her. Nice to see Patberg out there playing though.
Mabrey got nailed with a hell of a screen at the end of the 1st. Glad to see her be able to come back to the court.
Those lobs to Turner have been awful and ineffective today.

Really? How much of the game have you watched? By how much did you expect them to win?

They've frequently been awful and ineffective all season.
Turner can get plenty of points, and inlet passes to her will be available plenty often, in the normal flow of the game. When they decide at half court they're going to lob it to her come helll or high water, it's just a turnover waiting to happen. They end up telegraphing the pass and either it gets intercepted or thrown six feet over everyone's head.
I hate those forced passes.
I was actually very happy with Patberg. She was very poised and controlled the ball well (except for one trap very late in the game). She obviously still needs to get her shot back. This is a woman who scored a lot of points in HS and led her team to a state championship. Once she gets her touch back, she's going to be a huge addition.
I don't understand Nixtreefan's comment on the defense. It was actually excellent today. They kept Miami from getting good shots and away from the rim all day. Held them WAY under their usual shooting percentage. That's what won the game. The defense was excellent. I wonder if Nixtreefan actually watched the game.

That was my question as well. He seems to like to troll ND games and I do not know why. I know that Stanford fans are annoyed by him as well and I believe he is a Stanford fan. Most of the Cardinal fans I know are extremely nice.

I'm pretty sure I'm not included in this. I've had my moments.

You are included! I like your comments. You're a great poster. I can handle dissent, but Nixtree tries to antagonize, which is why I find his comments annoying.

| Just watched Katie Meyer's press conference? She's fabulous as a person and coach and I totally see why players would want to come and play for her.

And Debbie made the point several times that ND's transition defense was very effective all game and stopped Miami from capitalizing on those turnovers. At a point when ND already had about 15 turnovers or so, Miami had only scored three points off of those turnovers
Miami really had to work hard for their shots all game, and frequently was forced to take bad shots as the clock was running down. ND switched effectively in the screens and cut off the passing lanes. It was probably the best defensive performance of the year. During the first half when ND's offense was in chaos with Allen out, Turner sleepwalking, and Mabrey then headed to the locker room, Miami was unable to overtake them even though ND wasn't scoring. It was fun to watch, from my standpoint.

I keep thinking that kid just HASTA break out and become A Beast. There was good defense from both teams, but I just wanna believe she's not that easily contained. Only 4 fg attempts is not good.
