In the west, teams like Loyola-Marymount and Cal-Santa Barbara are pounding on the door to the AP Top Twenty while UCLA stumbles to regain credibility. In the east, everyone is beating everyone else in the Big East and At­ lantic Coast conferences, with seven teams between them in the Top Twenty. Here in the midwest, Indiana upset Purdue but Northwestern upset Indiana, while Dayton knocked off DePaul. But here at Notre Dame, the Irish are not getting into the fun as they are seemingly unable to pull off an upset even if their, well, NCAA hopes depended on it. Because they do. It is now the proverbial do-or-die time. Brian O’Gara
