just wanted to celebrate, and I thought it was awesome.��� Kentucky lost a couple days later to Baylor, which was throttled by Northwestern Dec. 4. ���College basketball ��� anytime you try and figure this thing out ��� The University of Illinois-Chicago beat Northwestern a couple days ago,��� Brey said. ���Need I go on? It���s crazy. ���I don���t know if Kentucky���s loss to Baylor affected us much or if we felt it diminished our win. I think we needed to do that in that atmosphere that night. Now we need the Wildcats to grow up and go on a heck of a streak in the SEC.��� Irish freshman forward Cameron Biedscheid, other than a frame that could use some extra bulk, seemingly arrived in South Bend all grown up. In 17.2 minutes per game, the 6���7 St. Louis product is averaging 9.0 points per game. He put up 10 points and drained two big three-pointers against the Wildcats. ���Awesome,��� Brey said of Biedscheid���s performance. ���I���m not surprised at all. He���s a bright-lights guy. To come in and score for us ��� he rebounded for us, too. He got us some big rebounds [three total]. We ran an out-of-bounds play for him, and he sticks a jump shot. ���I just feel good about him coming off the bench and scoring. He feels he belongs. What���s more important is the veteran guys feel, ���Come on in here; we need you.������ Austin Carr Honored As part of the 75th anniversary of the NCAA Men���s Basketball Champi- onship, the NCAA named the top�� 75 all-time March Madness players, with Irish legend Austin Carr (1968���71) making the list. Carr is Notre Dame���s all-time career scoring leader with 2,560 points and a 34.6 career scoring average. He ranks as the greatest scorer in NCAA Tournament history thanks to his 41.3 points-per-game career-scoring average in March games. Carr still holds the NCAA Tournament single-game scoring record with 61 points against Ohio University in 1970, one of six Big Dance marks he holds. He has posted three of the top five single-game scoring efforts in tournament history. ��� 2012-13 Results/ Upcoming Schedule Date Nov. 10 Nov. 12 Nov. 16 Nov. 17 Nov. 21 Nov. 24 Nov. 26 Nov. 29 Dec. 8 Dec. 15 Dec. 17 Dec. 19 Dec. 21 Jan. 5 Jan. 7 Jan. 12 Jan. 15 Opponent (TV) Result/Time (ET) Evansville$ W, 58-49 Monmouth$ W, 84-57 vs. St. Joseph���s# L, 79-70 (OT) vs. BYU# W, 78-68 George Washington W, 65-48 St. Francis (Pa.)
