Overall, I feel like our offense has regressed over the season. And my memory may not be the best, but I feel like it's not the first time in recent history, that we struggled with shooting the ball and getting the offense going as the season wears on.

Yea, we see the same teams in conference again, but so do other teams all around the nation. I can't do a statistical analysis on all of the teams, but you can't just say experience facing us multiple times is the prime reason for our offensive woes.

I am hoping the high-ranking recruits Tara has in the pipeline will help remedy that issue. Obviously, the goal is to be Notre Dame's starting lineup without any weak links. I also feel like we are too dependent on the three to get going, especially as we face zone defense.

Look at the other winners these past 2 days today and their 3-pt attempts as a percentage of their overall shot attempts:

Baylor: 4/71 = 5.6%
Notre Dame: 10/69 = 14.5%
Iowa = 18/57 = 31.6%
UConn = 15/58 = 25.9%
Mississippi State = 11/54 = 20.4%
Louisville = 17/57 = 29.8%
Oregon = 20/58 = 34.5%

Meanwhile, 42.6% of our shot attempts were 3-pointers today and that makes us too vulnerable to being dependent on hot shooting nights. Luckily our defense carried the day, but with Notre Dame's explosive offense, that won't be enough on Monday
