Mike Brey's Fighting Irish were given a #6 seed in the 2016 NCAA Tournament and will play the winner of the "play-in game" between Michigan vs Tulsa game -- this Friday in Brooklyn, NY -- in the East Region.
Since 1985 when the NCAA expanded to 64 teams -- #6 SEEDS have made it to the FINAL FOUR only SIX TIMES. Let's make it SEVEN!
FYI: Notre Dame has not played Michigan in basketball since 2006 -- an 87 - 84 loss to the Wolverines in Ann Arbor.
GO IRISH!
