The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are a very talented and dangerous team this season but their one loss may come back to haunt them for the college football playoff. The Irish at 8-1 for the year will try to continue their winning ways as they host the Wake Forest Demon Deacons on Saturday afternoon in South Bend. Notre Dame is ranked No. 4 in the latest playoff rankings.
DeShone Kizer has been great after replacing Malik Zaire for Notre Dame. Kizer has thrown for 1,931 yards, 16 touchdowns and six interceptions. Will Fuller is leading the team in the pass game with 44 catches for 900 yards and 12 touchdowns. C.J. Prosise has rushed for 975 yards and 11 touchdowns and will hopefully play after having a concussion last week. The Irish probably need to win out to make the playoff.
Wake Forest has a solid leader in John Wolford, who has thrown for 1,143 yards, seven touchdowns and eight interceptions at quarterback for the Demon Deacons. Cortez Lewis has led the receivers with 36 catches for 468 yards and two touchdowns while Kendall Hinton has 316 yards rushing and six touchdowns to lead the run game. The Demon Deacons would love to get a big win in front of a national television audience.
