i really felt like stanford could pull the upset. and they could have. just not against baylor lol. stanford did a great job. open shots missed, ... nervous, or not quite set, ... i don't know. but they never made a run, never pulled away to allow adjustments. the reason for that was baylors defense. stanford did fine on defense, but baylor did better.

notre dame is a shooting team, offense! we see all these teams that baylor has beat, and say, "if they could have just made their open shots!" there's a reason for that, baylor defense, ... and intimidation. notre dame may score a little better than stanford, but they won't play the defense stanford did. so the score goes up on the baylor side also. notre dame will have to stay out of foul trouble, i'm not so sure they can. i think the key to beating baylor is backdoor cuts and 3 pointers. but in order to do that, notre dame has to overcome baylors defense. so it's like the old saying goes, defense wins championships. if baylor holds up their defense, it's a blow out.
