Having success in the NCAA Tournament a lot of times comes down to the draw and the matchups between two teams. There are no easy games or bad teams. It’s win or go home, so every team has to leave it all on the floor but at the end of the day, it’s about execution.
The Rutgers-Notre Dame matchup is compelling for a lot of reasons including being former Big East foes. The Irish are a great three-point shooting team and of course that means RU must defend well on the perimeter. Leading scorers Ron Harper Jr. and Geo Baker need to attack the rim and score in multiple ways.
