I mean, the first one was good in itself; Notre Dame only beat Green by one. ND struggled a lot handling the ball, turned it over a LOT, and was playing pretty undisciplined, fouling the Bobcats a lot. Green was playing amazing defense pretty much the entire game, with the exception of the first 6 minutes of that game. Green is coming along well and is definitely in favor of at least sharing the SOC 1 title at this point with Notre Dame IF they beat New Boston next Friday. I do not think St. Joe is really in talk of that anymore because they have honestly been a bit disappointing with a lot of people saying they'd be pretty solid this year. Notre Dame has been great as well, but I've noticed that when watching them have a lot of weaknesses, especially with turnovers. As well with Green, who also has a major turnover problem. This game may have a lot of turnovers once it comes around. But I'm just curious, what do you all think?

I see you are pulling for Green.
ND was without two of their main players in that game and had just unexpectedly lost their head coach the day before.

They now have back another talented guard to help with the ball handling and a big man down below (4 year 3 sport athlete). The coaching staff has now taken the reigns and game planning and working together.

Should be a good one.
