(21) Notre Dame 103, Syracuse 91

SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) -- Notre Dame became the first team to crack the century mark in the Carrier Dome in 10 years.

After missing their first three 3-pointers, the No. 21 Irish went 10-for-14 from behind the arc to close the opening half and beat the Orange 103-91 on Tuesday night.

"We got off to a great start and played fearlessly and with great unselfishness," Notre Dame coach Mike Brey said. "We're good offensively. We can put numbers on the board."

West Virginia was the last team to score 100 in Syracuse, beating the Orange 101-79 on Dec. 4, 1996.

Syracuse abandoned its signature 2-3 zone defense for most of the game because of the tough matchups the Irish provided. But whatever defensive alignment the Orange chose proved no match for the Irish, who even played without 6-foot-9 Rob Kurz (sprained ankle), their second leading scorer at 14 points per game and leading rebounder at 8.8 per game.

This is gonna be a real long season for the Cuse. Paul Harris played well, but noone else really did. Nichols is a weird player, won't ever make it in the pros. And i hate Devendorf and Watkins... thoughts on this game?

Yeah... i have no idea how Jimmy B recruited him. He is the total oppisite of his type of player.

Yeah, Notre Dame +3.5 was my play of the day in the Locks thread yesterday. If they hadn't won at Marquette earlier this year, I think it would be safe to say that they have no chance of making the tourney right now. Maybe Notre Dame is better off with Harangody in the starting lineup...
