	#23 Notre Dame Fighting Irish (4-0)

Kennesaw State-Notre Dame Preview

(AP) -- An outstanding start offensively has Notre Dame back in the AP Top 25. The Irish are probably much more prolific than any other team Kennesaw State will face this season.

Luke Harangody and the 23rd-ranked Irish look to continue their offensive surge as they continue the Chicago Invitational Challenge on Tuesday night against the Atlantic Sun Conference's Owls.

Notre Dame (4-0) is gearing up for Big East play nicely, averaging 88.5 points while shooting 54.1 percent from the field and 48.1 percent from 3-point range. The Irish beat Liberty 91-72 on Sunday in its first game of the Chicago Invitational. (MORE)
