If you have the night off grab a car, plane, train or hot air balloon to get out to West Virginia. The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are set to play the Mountaineers in a crucially important conference road game. As we mentioned yesterday, the Mountaineers occupy the spot just above the Irish in the Big East standings. And as the month of March draws near, getting good road wins will be pure gold to the selection Sunday committee.
Check out this article at the South Bend Tribune.com, which goes over some of the basics of the matchup. Historically, the Irish have done very well when playing West Virginia, but with the current road game trend the Irish are on, and the way WVU usually plays against conference teams when they’re at home, who knows. Well, the one thing we do know is that it will be a hard-fought game. The Irish are desperate, and they’re looking better and better each game. Hope you have tickets to see the game!
