Blue Devils Struggle in their First Road Win 67-59 Over Notre Dame; Career High 23 for Mark Mitchell; 18 for Jeremy Roach
It wasn’t hard to read the writing on the wall that Micah Shrewsberry is a good coach and that Notre Dame isn’t as bad as their worst loss. The fact that the Irish, in their 3 prior ACC games, have held their opponents to 65, 54 and 54 points was an indicator that this team, regardless or record plays well on the defensive end. The Irish scoring defense has been impressive and whether you want to blame Duke’s bad shooting or Notre Dame’s defense – the Blue Devils offensively did not perform well.
