NEW YORK — Was Notre Dame’s 68-56 victory against Seton Hall an NCAA elimination game? Nonsense, said Notre Dame coach Mike Brey and Seton Hall coach Bobby Gonzalez.
“How about this being promoted as a [NCAA] play-in game?” Brey said.
“You know what? Right now nobody is going to talk about Seton Hall. Just give it a few days. Keep Seton Hall on the board. Just keep Seton Hall on the board. I know everybody knee-jjerks. Give it two days and come back and look at the big picture.”
Gonzalez also was happy to politic about his club’s NCAA tournament resume.
“I know that for some reason there’s all these gurus and experts that listen to what everybody else says,” Gonzalez said. “And they say, ‘Well, if Notre Dame wins, they’re in. If Seton Hall wins, they’re out.’ “
Gonzalez then went on to point out Seton Hall has a better RPI than Notre Dame, played a tougher schedule and had fewer bad losses.
