Right from the tip, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish came out hot against the Boston College Eagles. Matt Farrell had himself a first half. He had his worst game of his career against North Carolina last Monday night. He was due for a comeback type of game.
The senior point guard set the tone right away and the rest of the team followed. It is amazing how well this team can play offense when Matt Farrell is leading the charge. The largest lead the Irish had in the first half was 20.
