One game at a time: A journey through Notre Dame's 2021-22 men’s basketball season
A running game-by-game breakdown of Notre Dame’s 2021-22 men’s basketball season:
► Game 35: March 20
Texas Tech 59, Notre Dame 53
NCAA Tournament, Second Round
At Viejas Arena, San Diego
Record: 24-11 overall; 15-5 ACC
This is how this one ends. Tough. Frustrating. Heartbreakingly.
The ride that Notre Dame was on was supposed to continue up the California coast into the next week. No return flight back to Indiana for school. More practices and games and opportunities to make March memories.
Instead, Texas Tech sent Notre Dame home for good.
Noie:Tough way for ride to end
► Game 34: March 18
Notre Dame 78, Alabama 64
NCAA Tournament, First Round
At Viejas Arena, San Diego
Record: 24-10 overall; 15-5 ACC
Machine-like. Veteran-like. Business-like.
Pick any of those words and it would adequately describe the way No. 11 seed Notre Dame approached its first round NCAA Tournament game against No. 6 Alabama.
The Irish didn't win this game as much as they just went and took it. Wrestled it away and gave the Crimson Tide nothing to feel good about.
Man, this one was fun.
Noie:Irish all business when required
► Game 33: March 16
Notre Dame 89, Rutgers 87 (2 OT)
NCAA Tournament, First Four
At University of Dayton Arena
Record: 23-10 overall; 15-5 ACC
Go ahead and try and write a script for this one. We'll wait.
Nobody would believe how this First Four game unfolded. It was more like a Final Four game. Big moments. Big shots. Big plays. In the end, Notre Dame found a way and then found its way to California. The journey continued.
► Game 32: March 10
Virginia Tech 87, Notre Dame 80
At Barclays Center
Record: 22-10 overall; 15-5 ACC
Nobody saw this coming, and suddenly a college basketball season that's been a pretty sweet ride for Notre Dame may be down to only one more game.
The Irish embraced Brooklyn and the Atlantic Coast Conference tournament, but the city and the building didn't embrace the Irish. Virginia Tech had something to say about that.
Noie:Irish wake up too late to matter
► Game 31: March 5
Notre Dame 78, Pittsburgh 54
At Purcell Pavilion
Record: 22-9 overall; 15-5 ACC
This group wasn't going to let this one get sideways.
They had come too far, done too much, lost a lot more, to let anything slip through their grasp Saturday at home against Pittsburgh.
Nope. This Notre Dame team was going to do what it has done for the last few months. Play together and shoot it and share it. They did that.
A record regular season is the end result.
Noie:More caring, sharing from Irish
► Game 30: March 2
Florida State 74, Notre Dame 70
At Tallahassee, Fla.
Record: 21-9 overall; 14-5 ACC
It was hard to run offense.
It was hard to play defense.
It was a hard game to get, and in the end, Notre Dame didn't get it. But that's OK. Really, It was.
Noie:This one stings, but doesn't much matter
► Game 29: Feb. 26
Notre Dame 90, Georgia Tech 56
At Purcell Pavilion
Record: 21-8 overall; 14-4 ACC
Didn't see that one coming, did you?
Mike Brey has talked much of Atlantic Coast Conference play about how hard every single league game is going to be for his team. Not a lot of easy nights. Not a lot of laughers.
This one was both. It did not more than help the Irish lock down a top-four league finish and double bye in the league tournament.
Notre Dame is all but assured of going back to the NCAA tournament for the first time since 2017. Book it. It's over.
It is.
Noie:After this one, NCAA tourney is a locl
► Game 28: Feb. 23
Notre Dame 79, Syracuse 69
At Purcell Pavilion.
Record: 20-8 overall; 13-4 ACC
Hard games? Who said something about hard games?
This one was shaping up to be another of those that was going to go to the wire, especially after the Irish saw a 12-point lead shaved to two deep in the second half. Turns out Notre Dame had Syracuse right where it wanted it.
A lot of that thanks to power forwards Paul Atkinson and Nate Laszewski, and then a big shot from, who else, Prentiss Hubb.
They all made this one look easy.
► Game 27: Feb. 19
Wake Forest 79, Notre Dame 74
At Joel Coliseum, Winston-Salem, N.C.
Record: 19-8 overall; 12-4 ACC
Notre Dame had been really good in other teams' gyms over the last month of Atlantic Coast Conference play.
The Irish mustered some serious NCAA momentum by picking off some critical league road wins. Like at Louisville. And at Miami. Throw in wins at North Carolina State and Clemson for good measure.
But it eventually was going to end. It just was.
It did at Wake Forest.
Notre Dame was good, winning another league road game good. Wake Forest just was better. It happens.
Noie:Road run runs out at Wake Forest
► Game 26: Feb. 16
Notre Dame 99, Boston College 95 (OT)
At Purcell Pavilion
Record: 19-7 overall; 12-3 ACC
Few league games have been easy for Notre Dame, so why should the rematch with Boston College be any different?
It wasn't.
Forty minutes weren't enough to decide this one. The Eagles looked like they had it, then they didn't. When it came time for Notre Dame to take control, a familiar face did the tough stuff.
Again.
Noie:Winning time is P-Hubb time
► Game 25: Feb. 12
Notre Dame 75, Clemson 61
At Littlejohn Coliseum, Clemson, South Carolina
Record: 18-7 overall; 11-3 ACC
Notre Dame is making this road thing in the Atlantic Coast Conference look easy.
As the season winds down, the Irish are getting better on the road. The rematch with Clemson is a prime example. Notre Dame didn't win this one as much as it took it. Wrestled it away, told the home fans that, yeah, sorry, but not tonight.
This is getting fun.
► Game 24: Feb. 9
Notre Dame 63, Louisville 57
At Purcell Pavilion
Record: 17-7 overall; 10-3 ACC
Notre Dame has been down this league road before, well, kind of, sort of.
League games haven't been easy and neither was this one against Louisville. The Irish were up, then they were down, then they were rolling right along to another win, which put this program in unfamiliar territory.
But they believe.
Noie:How does first place sound?
► Game 23: Feb. 5
Notre Dame 69, NC State 57
At PNC Arena, Raleigh, N.C.
Record: 16-7 overall; 9-3 ACC
If Notre Dame was going to win this one, even with such a sizzling offensive start, it was going to have to do it on defense.
Many past Irish teams wouldn't have done it. But these guys are different. Another league road win put this Notre Dame team in some select company.
Don't look now, but February is fun again.
Noie:Don't look now, but here come the Irish
► Game 22: Feb. 2
Notre Dame 68, Miami (Fla.) 64
At Watsco Center, Coral Gables, Fla.
Record: 15-7 overall; 8-3 ACC
Notre Dame didn't have a chance, did it?
Not after how it lost less than 48 hours earlier at home to No. 9 Duke. Not in having to go 1,300 miles away to play the team in first place in the Atlantic Coast Conference to wrap four games in eight days.
No chance, right?
Uhhhhh.
More:What a bounce back
► Game 21: Jan. 31
No. 9 Duke 57, Notre Dame 43
At Purcell Pavilion
Record: 14-7 overall; 7-3 ACC
Everything was in place for Notre Dame to announce its return to the national stage. Sellout crowd. Some serious league momentum. Ranked team in town. This was the Irish time.
Duke had none of it. The Blue Devils came to town and just took this one. Took it quickly. Convincingly. This one was over not long after it started.
Noie:Notre Dame not ready for prime time
► Game 20: Jan. 29
Notre Dame 69, Virginia 65
At Purcell Pavilion
Record: 14-6 overall; 7-2 ACC
The streak lives no more. Finally, after so many near-misses and not-so-near misses, Notre Dame beat Virginia.
Prentiss Hubb made sure of that. Sure, Notre Dame was shaky late with the ball again and made it way more interesting than needed, but in the end, it did something it hadn't done in way too long against that team.
It won.
Noie:Two big home wins down, one to go
► Game 19: Jan. 26
Notre Dame 73, NC State 65
At Purcell Pavilion
Record: 13-6 overall; 6-2 ACC
Notre Dame needed this one.
Three straight league home games means nothing if you can't get the first one, which may be the easiest one. But this one wasn't easy. Not for the first half. Not for the start of the second.
Then power forward Nate Laszewski happened for the Irish, and another league win was in the books.
Noie:Late night, good night for Notre Dame
► Game 18: Jan. 22
Notre Dame 82, Louisville 70
At KFC Yum! Center, Louisville, Ky.
Record: 12-6 overall; 5-2 ACC
This was par for what the course used to be when it was Notre Dame and Loisville.
A game of big runs, big swings of momentum, big shots and big moments. Finally, it was back and it sure was fun.
Notre Dame and its seven-man rotation made sure of it. Freshman Blake Wesley, yeah, he was pretty good as well.
Noie:Notre Dame had Blake Wesley, and Louisville didn't
► Game 17: Jan. 17
Notre Dame 71, Howard 68
At Burr Gymnasium, Washington
Record: 11-6 overall; 4-2 ACC
Whoa, that one almost went sideways in a hurry.
But again, get Notre Dame into game situations, and Notre Dame usually gets the win. Up by 11 points with less than three minutes remaining, the Irish weren't expected to scratch and claw and figure it out against Howard. But figure it out they did in a game that wasn't decided until a late Prentiss Hubb layup and missed Howard 3.
Get the win and get home.
Noie:Bigger than basketball? Sure, but win helps
► Game 16: Jan. 15
Virginia Tech 79, Notre Dame 73
At Cassell Coliseum, Blacksburg, Va.
Record: 10-6 overall; 4-2 ACC
Six minutes.
Six minutes and change were all that remained. If Notre Dame could caress its lead and find a way to get to the end, it would get another league road win and end the night tied with Miami (Fla.) for first place in the league.
Big stuff. Turns out, too big.
Notre Dame couldn't get a stop when it needed, couldn't hit a free throw when it needed, couldn't close out a game when a game was there to be closed out. For the first time in 2022 and the first time in 28 days, Notre Dame was left to pick up the pieces and move on after a loss.
Noie:Defense doesn't travel to Blacksburg
► Game 15: Jan. 12
Notre Dame 72, Clemson 56
At Purcell Pavilion
Record: 10-5 overall; 4-1 ACC
This one was fun. And, relatively speaking, easy.
Notre Dame trailed only once – 2-0 – and led for 38:18. The Irish made shots. The Irish got stops. They played like a team getting confident in its collective self. By the end of the night, Notre Dame had run its win streak to six, and won for the seventh time in the last eight games.
It was a lot of Dane Goodwin (21 points) and a lot of Blake Wesley (20).
A quarter way through league play, the Irish were 4-1. Mike Brey went to the dining halls the day before the game and stood on the tables to get the student body motivated to watch some hoops. After this one, he went into the stands to thank them.
Think they might be back after this one.
More:Strong start, easy finish for Irish
► Game 14: Jan. 8
Notre Dame 72, Georgia Tech 68 (OT)
At McCamish Pavilion, Atlanta
Record: 9-5 overall; 3-1 ACC
Oh, no, there Notre Dame again went in its annual Atlantic Coast Conference visit to Georgia Tech.
McCamish Pavilion has long been too cruel to the Irish. Close games and a lot of league losses since it started visiting midtown Atlanta in 2014. The Irish always found ways to play close games, but never win said close games.
Then this one happened. Overtime was needed and Notre Dame had to hold on for its collective life, but a team that believed coming in now does even more after this one.
This one was big.
Noie:Don't look now, but karma might be changing
► Game 13: Jan. 5
Notre Dame 78, North Carolina 73
At Purcell Pavilion
Record: 8-5 overall; 2-1 ACC
Here came another college basketball blueblood to town, and back they left with another loss to Notre Dame.
The Irish ran their win streak to four, and two straight in the league, in a game that they controlled for a good chunk of play. Notre Dame defended. It rebounded. It shared the ball. It made shots. Most importantly, it believed – the old guys believed – that they would find a way.
The Irish found a way.
Noie:The Irish old guys played old
► Game 12: Dec. 28
Notre Dame 68, Pittsburgh 67
At Petersen Events Center, Pittsburgh
Record: 7-5 overall; 1-1 ACC
He had lost his swagger. He has lost his starting job. He had looked a shell of his former self, the guy who was an all-league preseason selection. The deeper Notre Dame worked through the early part of the season, the more everyone wondered, what's wrong with senior point guard/captain Prentiss Hubb?
Hubb downplayed everything, saying he had to just keep working, had to just keep believing, that eventually, it was going to swing back around to where the game would be good for him.
It swung back around at Pittsburgh, and Hubb delivered.
► Game 11: Dec. 22
Notre Dame 83, Texas A&M Corpus Christi 73
At Purcell Pavilion
Record: 6-5 overall; 0-1 ACC
This was supposed to be an easy one. The last game before Christmas break usually comes against an overmatched opponent just happy to collect a check and play a game, however non-competitive, before getting out of town and getting home for the Holidays.
Then this one happened. There was nothing easy about it. It was kind of weird, and as we've seen this year, Notre Dame doesn't do weird very well.
The Irish had to dig in, grind it out and find a way. They dug in. They grinded it out. They found a way.
Noie:Easy does it? Not this one
► Game 10: Dec. 20
Notre Dame 85, Western Michigan 52
At Purcell Pavilion
Record: 5-5 overall; 0-1 ACC
This had the makings of a fun one in many ways for Notre Dame. When you see an overmatched opponent on the schedule, you need to take advantage of it, use the game to your advantage.
The Irish did that while getting back to their ball-sharing, shot-making ways. They played 40 minutes as usual in this one, but it was long over before the final horn.
It was a game and an outcome that Notre Dame really needed.
Noie:Easy does it for Notre Dame
► Game 9: Dec. 18
Indiana 64, Notre Dame 56
At Gainbridge Fieldhouse, Indianapolis
Record: 4-5 overall; 0-1 ACC
They knew the deal going into the 11th and final Crossroads Classic at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in downtown Indianapolis.
For the previous game's victory over Kentucky to mean anything – A-N-Y-T-H-I-N-G – Notre Dame would have to offer a similar effort and win a similar type of prep against Indiana. Otherwise, it would feel like more of the same from this same group – one step forward, one step (or maybe even two).
After 40 minutes of choppy effort and execution, Notre Dame wound up taking that proverbial step back. So much for building off the momentum and a little bit of magic from the Kentucky win.
Didn't happen. Maybe next time (we've said that a lot).
Noie:Another long day in Indy for the Irish
► Game 8: Dec. 11
Notre Dame 66, No. 10 Kentucky 62
At Purcell Pavilion
Record: 4-4 overall; 0-1 ACC
It's still early in the season, but it already was getting late for Notre Dame.
When was this group of Irish seniors going to deliver? In a big game? In a close game? In a home game? We'd seen them compete and come close so many times over the last few years that we wondered if they were ever going to do it.
Against Big Blue Nation.
At home.
Notre Dame finally did it, and got it from a freshman. A freshman from South Bend. Big shots were made. Big stops were made. Fans rushed the court at the final horn. It finally felt like a big game again at Purcell Pavilion.
Finally.
Noie:Under bright lights, the Irish finally deliver

► Game 7: Dec. 3
Boston College 73, Notre Dame 57
At Conte Forum, Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts
Record: 3-4 overall; 0-1 ACC
It was going to be different this year, or so we were led to believe. It still might be, but based on this one, it's hard to see Notre Dame being any better in Atlantic Coast Conference play.
The Irish actually looked worse. Slow. Uninspired. Sluggish. Unwilling to dig in and compete. It was all that and more.
The last time the Irish played a league game – in March against North Carolina in the ACC Tournament - they trailed by 50 points before a 42-point loss, the most lopsided in the Mike Brey era. The Irish planned to use that loss, that embarrassment, as motivation so when ACC play rolled around in 2021-22, they'd be ready. It would be different.
Then, it was more of the same.
Noie:Long night, maybe long year ahead for Notre Dame after this one

► Game 6: Nov. 29
Illinois 82, Notre Dame 72
At State Farm Center, Champaign, Illinois
Record: 3-3
This had to be among one of the strangest nights in Notre Dame men's basketball history – and it had nothing to do what happened on the court or what the scoreboard said or anything else basketball-related.
It was all about football, specifically, the decision a short time before tip by now former Notre Dame football coach Brian Kelly to leave for LSU.
Illinois fans chanted Kelly's name and that of his new school from their spot behind the Irish bench. Notre Dame trailed by as many as 16, but made a late run in an electric atmosphere. It wasn't enough, but it may have been enough to build on.
Maybe.
► Recap:Notre Dame not ready for prime time
► Game 5: Nov. 24
Texas A&M 73, Notre Dame 67
At Michelob Ultra Arena, Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas
Record: 3-2
Up double digits and rolling in the second half, all Notre Dame had to do was put together a second straight solid 20 minutes like it had done earlier, and man, that charter flight through the night would go by in a snap.
Instead, Texas A&M coach Buzz Williams, who knows a thing or two or three about playing Notre Dame, pulled out an old playbook to fluster the Irish.
Notre Dame never had a chance.

► Game 4: Nov. 23
Notre Dame 90, Chaminade 67
At Michelob Ultra Arena, Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas
Record: 3-1
The Division II Silverswords were just in the wrong place at the wrong time in this second night matchup in Las Vegas. Notre Dame played the way a team that is bigger and stronger and just flat-out better should play.
It wasn't expected to be close. It wasn't. Turns out it was all the Irish could really salvage from their trip.
► Game recap: : After deflating defeat, Notre Dame gets hot against Division II Chaminade
► Game 3: Nov. 22
Saint Mary's 62, Notre Dame 59
At Michelob Ultra Arena, Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas
Record: 2-1
It was age and experience from the Atlantic Coast Conference against age and experience from the West Coast Conference.
The West Coast won.
In the closing minutes of a close game, it was Saint Mary's that figured out ways to make plays to close this one out. Notre Dame's old guys committed turnovers and couldn't close out on a shooter quick enough to figure a way out. Back to the drawing board at Mandalay Bay.
► Game recap: : Late night not a good night for Notre Dame in Las Vegas
►Game 2: Nov. 16
Notre Dame 70, High Point 61
At Purcell Pavilion, South Bend
Record: 2-0
There have been times and games and stretches during his career where it seemed Notre Dame senior power forward Nate Laszewski was so concerned about doing what he was touted to do, what he was supposed to do — make shots — that it affected other parts of his game.
Not anymore.
Laszewski hasn't let an inability to consistently score weigh on his game. Like Tuesday, when he couldn't get many shots to fall (4-for-11 from the field, 2-for-5 from 3), but made a difference in other ways. Like a career high 16 rebounds, including 12 on the defensive end.
► Game recap: Way more interesting than anticipated, but Notre Dame handles High Point in hoops
►Game 1: Nov. 13
Notre Dame 68, CS Northridge 53
At Purcell Pavilion, South Bend
Record: 1-0
Without the work of graduate student power forward Paul Atkinson, Jr., and freshman guard Blake Wesley, Saturday would've looked a lot like last year with a veteran group of Irish doing just enough to win. Or maybe not even that.
Wesley offered the crowd a lot to like, whether it be the baseline drive and two-hand dunk or ability to show his skills in the open court. He scored a team-high 21 points in 28 minutes. Atkinson was the catalyst in the second half while finishing with 16 points and six rebounds in 27 minutes.

► Nov. 5 (Exhibition)
Notre Dame 78, St. Norbert 44
At Purcell Pavilion, South Bend
Much has been made about the strides the Irish have needed to make on defense, and rightfully so, but there also will be nights like Friday’s first half when Notre Dame is just going to score. A lot. And from distance. Notre Dame went for 39 points in the first 20 minutes thanks to perimeter shooting. The Irish made nine 3-pointers, which helped bust open a somewhat sluggish start.
Notre Dame also did Notre Dame stuff on offense with 19 assists on its first 21 baskets. Regardless of what the Irish do on defense, they still can share it. And shoot it.

► Oct. 29, 2021 (Exhibition)
Notre Dame 87, Nazareth College 37
At Purcell Pavilion, South Bend
The Irish rolled past Nazareth (New York) College, a Division III team. It wasn’t even that close. In the greater scheme of just about everything, this game means nothing. Maybe less than that. But if you look a little closer, drill down and understand where this program was in March — when it trailed by 50 points in its final game — it was a good place to start for a group that has big plans on going places.
