Mike Brey did one heck of a job with this ND team, a team left for dead after Christmas as it tried to find some identity. Brey pushed all the right buttons and got just about all he could out of this team.
Alabama had 8 days off also losing 3 straight games coming into this game. They were clearly not IN TUNED for a March Madness mindset to win this game. Good season btw . Congratulations ✌🏼
ND picked the perfect time to play their best game of the year. I gotta say, Mike Brey does a helluva job with only two inside bigs. Texas Tech? A little errrr "lot" better!!
Congratulations to Notre Dame. They shot the ball well and played hard. Alabama showed why it was one of the worst defensive teams in the country this season. For all of the goodwill Oats & Company built in 20-21, they gave away most of it in 21-22.
@@blaizewallis346 bama couldnt hit a free throw, still took them to overtime to win, dont see how a close overtime game is exactly teaching them that very well considering it was a pretty competitive game. guess your not as smart as you think you are
Notre Dame more than any other team has the BS factor that helps them beat good teams. It happens in all sports just watch college football next season.
I hate march madness superstitions, including the First Four. Apparently since 2012, every other time or the occurring year a team out of the First Four always advances to the Sweet 16 and beyond. You could make out of UCLA from last year as an example. It’s just unfortunate the team was against Alabama, because I’m not a fan but I truly do think they would shut up people about being overrated because they beat Gonzaga. Now Gonzaga has an easy path to the 4.
Uh they don’t have an easy path by any means. If they get past Memphis they have Arkansas, then either Texas tech or Duke. If anything they have the hardest path for a 1 seed
The worst announcing crew, Avery Johnson the most biased announcer for his team he used to coach understandably and Lisa Byington with the woman voice nobody wants to hear.
One word. DEFENSE! Alabama don't know how to play defense. Players are always out of position and they reach with hands instead of moving their freekin feet. SMDH. Pitiful performance...
@@michaelmcgee2026 really i heard no one say that, i went to bama and still picked nd in my bracket. majority of bama fans knew the basketball team was a toss up in terms of what we would see
@@zesolodar yep. Maybe expand your horizons beyond just Bama fans??? I personally knew Bama was garbage. I don't gamble and I bet my buddy a 100 bucks ND would win to prove a point. 😝Rutgers and Bama were favored to win in Vegas and ESPN projections. Articles were saying Rutgers was too physical defensively and Bama was too much of an offensive powerhouse.
He’ll get fired next year when Alabama gets NCAA violations for cheating. Surprised they haven’t looked into Alabama yet, a failure of a program like that shouldn’t be able to recruit as well as they do.
i saw an interesting comment from nate oats, said only one player showed up to voluntary shoot around yesterday (quinnerly) and only three showed up to shoot around today (ellis, quinnerly, shakelford) not saying if the team would have came they would have won but i think that shows the overall attitude of the team this year. they beat baylor, gonzaga, ut, and houston so the talent was there i guess just not the mentality
This ND team is a battle-tested group. It's no accident they are putting it together. The Tide just caught Ryan on a tear, no need to feel embarrassed.
Experts: Notre Dame shouldn't be in the tournament Ah, so basically they're at least winning this game, if not going to the S16 or further because that's just what happens
@@michaelmcgee2026 Notice I said nothing about their current performance in the tourney. Alabama and Notre Dame were the most inconsistent teams in their conferences in the REGULAR SEASON.
This is why Alabama was definitely not a 6 seed they were extremely overrated and I’ve been saying that this whole season I have no clue what drugs they were taking while seeding Bama
Hopefully, this game was the coming out party for Cormac Ryan. He only averaged 8 PPG, but now looks to be more assertive.
Great win for Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
Notre Dame is playing with house money right now. The ACC is killing it in this tournament
wdym VT just got whooped and Duke hasn’t even played yet
So is the Big 12.
Duke won
Miami won
ND won
UNC won
Unless I’m wrong only VT lost
@@GoatedAtNFS 4/5 is still good
SEC is 3-3... thought they'd do better smh
ACC was way underrated this year
Mike Brey did one heck of a job with this ND team, a team left for dead after Christmas as it tried to find some identity. Brey pushed all the right buttons and got just about all he could out of this team.
As a Bama fan Congratulations ND , great game.

Jahvon quinnerly got hurt at the beginning of the game they would have won if he didn’t fs
Notre Dame finally got that elusive win vs Bama, albeit in basketball.
a win is a win, right?
Probably all we'll get. I'll take it lol
Nothing against ND, but Alabama was a very tough team this year. I was surprised ND dominated this one.
ND picked the perfect time to play their best game of the year. I gotta say, Mike Brey does a helluva job with only two inside bigs. Texas Tech? A little errrr "lot" better!!
Alabama had not played a real opponent all year!! GO IRISH!!
It wasn't that surprising. They never should've been a 6. They've won some big games but they've been EXTREMELY inconsistent. Lost to Vanderbilt
They’re 19-14 bruh
Alabama is trash
The whole sequence from 8:32 - 9:10 were crazy to watch in person. Each play happened back to back to back
SEC getting exposed, Auburn and Tennessee the only two legit teams in that conference
Arkansas? LSU is also pretty good
@@GeauxTigers7189 I forgot about Arkansas…and LSU is meh we’ll see
getting exposed? the only one exposed is kentucky auburn and tennessee beat garbage teams lol
Alabama was never good. Nothing was exposed here. They did not deserve a 6 seed.
Alabama beat Gonzaga that's why they ranked them so high to make it seem like Gonzaga lost to a good team
sigh prayers to jq smh 🙏🏼
Roll died 😀😀
They been died after that Georgia loss
Congratulations to Notre Dame. They shot the ball well and played hard. Alabama showed why it was one of the worst defensive teams in the country this season. For all of the goodwill Oats & Company built in 20-21, they gave away most of it in 21-22.
Notre Dame is like UCLA last season, a sleeper that possibly will make the final four but I bet no one has them in it.
Gonna have to get past the Red Raider son
Blake Wes is a star
Keep it rockin Irish! Smoked bama!!
Is this one of those quad 1 wins lol. Go Irish!
somebody tell alabama that this isn't football haha
Think UCLA already taught them that lesson very well last year
@@blaizewallis346 bama couldnt hit a free throw, still took them to overtime to win, dont see how a close overtime game is exactly teaching them that very well considering it was a pretty competitive game. guess your not as smart as you think you are
Alabama actually thought they could hang with ND…. What a joke!
Congrats
Notre Dame will face third seed Texas Tech on Sunday in the second round
To much for then
Them*
@@Walkencharlie12 they said the same thing about Rutgers and Bama
@@michaelmcgee2026 Rutgers and Bama don’t compare
Alabama was projected to be a 1 seed before the season started lol
way too early predictions... it never ends the same way.
as an old man that I met once said: the game is played and catifish is, well... fished
AU wins. I won my golf game today. Alafumble gets beat. What an AUsome day!
Fighting Irish!!! Good game. They are gonna get whooped by Texas Tech tho!!! Guns up! Good game to Alabama, see ya next year!
YES 🤣
@@davidhumphries1733 we almost won!
Everyone I personally know Cormac Ryan he’s a family friend
Here come the Irish!
Reverend Avery Johnson? Voice is familiar
Alabama did not even deserve to be in this tournament with their record. Glad to see them gone though.
It's hard to concentrate with women announcers.... I turn the volume off.
N.D. box Score from 3_16_2022
Notre Dane so fundamentally sound
Jq to syracuse,who's with me?
Alabama didn’t deserve to share the court with Notre Dame. Joke team
You shoot like ND did and you will win a lot of games, You shoot like Alabama did and you will lose lots of games. Laws of averages.
2nd straight year Alabama been knocked out by a first four team
Notre Dame more than any other team has the BS factor that helps them beat good teams. It happens in all sports just watch college football next season.
I know 23

Once they won their first four game im just like yup, might as well beat Alabama too
Not really easy, I wouldn’t underestimate Memphis and Arkansas, Texas tech, and Duke all could very well beat them as well
Bro, March suspense and madness makes it so great. Everybody loves it because anything can happen. March is the best month of any sport
Uh they don’t have an easy path by any means. If they get past Memphis they have Arkansas, then either Texas tech or Duke. If anything they have the hardest path for a 1 seed
Bama a year away if core is maintained but gonna need slashers,
The worst announcing crew, Avery Johnson the most biased announcer for his team he used to coach understandably and Lisa Byington with the woman voice nobody wants to hear.
No kidding, they were terrible! Not to mention Seth Davis about to cry after ND won.
Lisa Byington has the most annoying voice on the planet
@@cgh7337 Seth doesn't realize the game has evolved. He's in his own little world.
Who cares who’s announcing. The game itself is more than the people talking about it from the sideline
notre dame did the impossible they beated alabama
Not much of a surprise. ND in most years has a better basketball program.
@@Itsjustlikemagic not to mention in basketball and football ND leads both series overall.
three point mania O_O
One word. DEFENSE! Alabama don't know how to play defense. Players are always out of position and they reach with hands instead of moving their freekin feet. SMDH. Pitiful performance...
Alabama played lack luster and Notre Dame played a lot better, end of story and season!
Cormack Ryan ginobili jr
So comments allowed here but not on the women's swimming event.hmmm
Good luck against Texas tech lol
They said the same about Alabama

Fire Nate oat!

Big hair hurts basketball players.
The IRISH!!
Ha ha ha ha ….
Another #6 seed bites the dust. Alabama go back home. You were an awesome embarrassment.

@@user-kz9ot4zv5e idk. You read the last guys comment, if that's true then they absolutely should be embarrassed.

Neither of these teams should’ve been in lol
@@DaniBoi_AU1113 ND has won 2 games so far.....you may need to rethink that statement
@@michaelmcgee2026 Notice I said nothing about their current performance in the tourney. Alabama and Notre Dame were the most inconsistent teams in their conferences in the REGULAR SEASON.
15 wins and second in the conference is inconsistent, maybe read up before you make a baseless claim next time.

Cinderella wears blue & gold. GOOOOOO Irish !
This is why Alabama was definitely not a 6 seed they were extremely overrated and I’ve been saying that this whole season I have no clue what drugs they were taking while seeding Bama
Bracket buster
I saw Bama losing this game from a mile away. I’m just disappointed I gave Alabama benefit of the doubt on some of my brackets.
I thought Rutgers would beat Bama, so I switched my pick to Bama when Rutgers lost! What a mistake!
@@oscarm8686 Same, I had it about 50/50 between my brackets but my guy was telling me Notre Dame
Maybe for you.
@@DaniBoi_AU1113 I did the opposite lol. I thought Rutgers would beat ND but I didn't let that change my pick for this game.
Too bad for Alabama that this wasn't football otherwise they would have won going away. 😆
WE ARE....... ND!
These teams had no business being in the tournament! Talk about an overrated team! Alabama was preseason top 10! Played zero defense this yr!
aTm for sure should have been in over bama
I mean notre dame actually does have business because they were in the first four and won
