![]() ![]() “We need to get back and get our defense set. “We always want to get back,” Boeheim told reporters. They’ve got the inside and outside attack and it’s very consistent and they’ve played very well in the league.” Notre Dame has allowed 11 teams to score 70-plus points, and Brey said that despite holding BC to 28.6 percent shooting “our (season defensive) numbers (giving up 69.2 points and 42.4 percent shooting) are still not acceptable overall.”ĪBOUT SYRACUSE (13-8, 3-5): Syracuse ranks 36th nationally in points allowed (64.7), a number fueled by a transition defense that has not allowed a point in that department during its last four games. I think they’re a really well-balanced team and I think that’s pretty much what people thought coming into the year. They score against anybody, they put points up, they can shoot it, they can score inside. “I think they’re a very good offensive team,” Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim told reporters. Syracuse counters with a pair of fifth-year guards in Michael Gbinije and Trevor Cooney, its leading scorers at 17.4 and 13.7 points.ĪBOUT NOTRE DAME (14-5, 5-2 ACC): Jackson had averaged 20.2 points in his previous six games, but the Irish had five players finish in double figures versus the Eagles en route to their fourth straight win. ‘’Steve Vasturia just slid over and handled the ball, and we methodically had a really good league win.’’ Vasturia averages 12.8 points and shoots 38.6 percent on 3-pointers and he may find help in Rex Pfleuger, who posted season highs in minutes played (32) and points (11) against BC. ![]() ![]() ‘’We didn’t let (Jackson’s injury) be a distraction at all,’’ Notre Dame coach Mike Brey told reporters. Jackson, a junior point guard, pulled a hamstring early in a 76-49 rout of Boston College on Saturday and the Irish will miss his scoring (16.6 points per game) and 5.0 assist average that ranks second in the ACC. The Orange will open a four-game homestand after having their three-game winning streak snapped with a loss at No. Baseball Baseball: Schedule Baseball: Roster Baseball: News Basketball Basketball: Schedule Basketball: Roster Basketball: News Bowling Bowling: Schedule Bowling: Roster Bowling: News Cross Country Cross Country: Schedule Cross Country: Roster Cross Country: News Football Football: Schedule Football: Roster Football: News Golf Golf: Schedule Golf: Roster Golf: News Soccer Soccer: Schedule Soccer: Roster Soccer: News Swimming Swimming: Schedule Swimming: Roster Swimming: News Tennis Tennis: Schedule Tennis: Roster Tennis: News Track and Field Track and Field: Schedule Track and Field: Roster Track and Field: News Volleyball Volleyball: Schedule Volleyball: Roster Volleyball: News Wrestling Wrestling: Schedule Wrestling: Roster Wrestling: News Basketball Basketball: Schedule Basketball: Roster Basketball: News Bowling Bowling: Schedule Bowling: Roster Bowling: News Cross Country Cross Country: Schedule Cross Country: Roster Cross Country: News Dance Dance: Schedule Dance: Roster Dance: News Flag Football Flag Football: Schedule Flag Football: Roster Flag Football: News Golf Golf: Schedule Golf: Roster Golf: News Soccer Soccer: Schedule Soccer: Roster Soccer: News Softball Softball: Schedule Softball: Roster Softball: News Swimming Swimming: Schedule Swimming: Roster Swimming: News Tennis Tennis: Schedule Tennis: Roster Tennis: News Track and Field Track and Field: Schedule Track and Field: Roster Track and Field: News Volleyball Volleyball: Schedule Volleyball: Roster Volleyball: News Wrestling Wrestling: Schedule Wrestling: Roster Wrestling: News Archery Archery: Schedule Archery: Roster Archery: News Bass Fishing Bass Fishing: Schedule Bass Fishing: Roster Bass Fishing: News Kayak Bass Fishing Kayak Bass Fishing: Schedule Kayak Bass Fishing: Roster Kayak Bass Fishing: News Cheerleading Cheerleading: Schedule Cheerleading: Roster Cheerleading: News Esports Esports: Schedule Esports: Roster Esports: News on Twitter on Instagram Campbellsville Tigers on Facebook Annual Awards Shows CU Sports Network News Archive On This Day in CU Athletics Photo Galleries Perry Thomas Show Inside CU Sports Vice President for Athletics Director of Athletics Hall of Fame More Than A Game Athletic Communications & Multimedia Staff Directory Student-Athlete Bio B.A.S.S.If Demetrius Jackson hasn’t been the most valuable player on Notre Dame’s roster, the Irish will find out Thursday when they face Syracuse without their leading scorer.
