The Hoos begin ACC play after a successful out of conference season that included 2 wins over KenPom Top 10 teams. Notre Dame hasn't had quite as successful a season, as they've beaten just one top 50 team and lost to 100th ranked Alabama. Still, Notre Dame is a very good offensive team and is led by a PG who is projected to be a lottery pick in the NBA draft.
The Hoos open ACC play today against Notre Dame at JPJ. For the Hoos, a disappointing beginning to the season saw them lose their 2nd game of the season to GW.
