Will Notre Dame Fighting Irish Turn the Tide at Silvio O. Conte Forum?

As the Notre Dame Fighting Irish prepare to face the Boston College Eagles at Silvio O. Conte Forum, fans are eager to see how their team will perform on the road after a series of challenging games. The upcoming clash, scheduled for January 16th, is an opportunity for the Fighting Irish to turn around their recent fortunes.

In their last game against Florida State Seminoles, Notre Dame struggled with turnovers and shooting efficiency from the free-throw line, making only 27 percent of their attempts. Despite a better two-point field goal percentage at 48 percent compared to Florida State's 42 percent, they were outscored in points off turnovers and second-chance points.

The previous away game saw a more promising performance with a victory over Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets in overtime. The Fighting Irish showed resilience and an ability to close out tight games. Their free-throw accuracy was impressive at 90 percent, which could be crucial in upcoming contests.

However, consistency remains an issue as evidenced by another home loss against Duke Blue Devils where they shot only 50 percent from the free-throw line and had an assists turnover ratio of just 0.38.

Notre Dame's fans can expect their team to focus on reducing turnovers and improving free-throw shooting while maintaining solid two-point field goal percentages as they have shown capability in these areas.

The venue might pose its challenges; playing away from home always requires adjustments due to unfamiliar surroundings and crowd support favoring Boston College Eagles this time around.
