  Up here to the top of the hour on the radio with coach Ooriama.
• 0:03
  There is a after show usually here at cafe or with coach Ooriama. Notre
• 0:08
  Dame is next. They're currently playing Syracuse Orangely thirty three twenty nine. Late
• 0:13
  Syracuse, by the way, is tied with North Carolina, a top the
• 0:15
  ACC. Thanks Zach back in the studio for that Irish different. We have
• 0:20
  a win against North Carolina. Yes, you do. In Mohican and Louisville
• 0:24
  and Louisville your buddy, Jeff, they're both in the ACC. Right,
• 0:27
  last I checked anybody else in that league. We lost in State State,
• 0:31
  so we played three ACC teams. Notre Dame will be four. Wow.
• 0:36
  Yeah, only got two non conference games. Let's and we know and we
• 0:39
  know the other one Super Bowl Sunday. No, all of you Miles for
• 0:43
  Notre Dame, how are they different without her? Not much? Because the
• 0:46
  kid that they just got, the freshman kid, Hidalgo, she's she's a
• 0:53
  lot like Olivia Miles, maybe even more offensive minded. Olivia Miles is more
• 1:00
  like, let me get people the ball, you know, and she's just
• 1:03
  really creative. This kid's just she's aggressive as all heck and really hard,
• 1:10
  hard, hard to play against. Be a great matchup her and Nika or
• 1:15
  her and KK. It's going to be a great matchup Saturday night. It's
• 1:19
  gonna be a lot of fun and I'm looking forward to that one. Yeah,
• 1:21
  Cit runs back from her knee injury. She seemingly hasn't you know,
• 1:26
  lost a step. I mean, she's been dominant all two for seven so
• 1:29
  far today against Syracuse. The one that really put a hurt in last year
• 1:34
  was Maddy Westbeld with the threes. They had a lot of threes last December.
• 1:38
  Yeah, they did, they did. That game was a weird game
• 1:45
  because I think once once Asy got hurt, we were kind of deflated and
• 1:55
  the game just kind of got away from us in the first half. We
• 2:00
  came out in the second half and we played great. We cut it to
• 2:02
  like three or four, I forget what it was, but we just didn't
• 2:07
  have enough. And they, you know, they play they played great.
• 2:10
  People always play great against us when you give them a chance to win.
• 2:15
  If you're given if you give one of those teams a chance to win,
• 2:16
  they play great. And then you'll say, well, do they play like
• 2:20
  that all the time? And no, We just just talked to somebody recently
• 2:25
  that we just played that. I said, do you play like that all
• 2:29
  the time? They said no. I said, man, you wouldn't have
• 2:32
  the record you have if you play like that all the time. I'm trying
• 2:35
  to think of who we just played. It's amazing that the bullseye stole on
• 2:38
  your back after other hours. Man, It's it's like never ending. Man.
• 2:42
  They just people know who you are, and they they gear themselves up
• 2:46
  to play you. That's a big deal. And then they celebrate like they
• 2:52
  just won a national championship, which is you know, that's that's just fine.
• 2:55
  That's just the way it goes. But who is it at the place?
• 2:59
  Like who plays like that? Who just played us? That played us?
• 3:04
  Oh, Seaton Hall, they played us great? Right, yeah,
• 3:07
  they shot the ball grade, they played us great. And I said to
• 3:10
  Tony after the game, I said, Tony, you guys don't play like
• 3:14
  this normally, do He goes no. And then they beat Saint John's on
• 3:19
  Monday, So you know, we were like the best medicine for teams.
• 3:23
  Sometimes teams struggling just playoffs that don't make them play better. Well, you
• 3:29
