This was my kind of game.

This is what I'm here for.

Mm hmm.

You know, I think it even goes back further.

In the preview, I mentioned that this was being treated as a business trip, right?

After the win here in D.C.

on Saturday, Duke did not return to Durham.

They did not give themselves a chance.

They kind of get swallowed up by the euphoria after that big win, which was a very big win.

They went straight to Chicago.

They got some hot dogs, they trained, and then they went to South Bend and they treated it as a business trip.

And because of that, Jason,

they came out strong.

They, they, they came out in what, by the under, you know, 12 media time out in the first half, this game was pretty much over.

That's how well they were playing in those first eight minutes.

I mean, it was at one point, I think it was what, 20 to four.

And I don't think Notre Dame ever got closer than that.

The rest of the game, the fact that they were able to come out strong and Jason, this was a kind of an oddity.

This team, this Notre Dame team, we talked about how slow they play.

And we talk about how slow Duke likes to play on defense because they grind teams to a halt.
