Senior Day. Last time guys like Te'o, Lewis-Moore, Eifert, Riddick, Toma, Motta, etc play in Notre Dame Stadium. It could be the last time for Nix, Shembo, Wood, etc...hopefully they all come back.

Wake Forest is 5-5, so they'll be playing for a bowl berth (they have Vanderbilt next week). Notre Dame has played very, ummm, not great at home this season. That could continue.

I expect to see Riddick get a ton of carries and throws to Goodman and Toma.

Brian Kelly vs Wake Foret:
2011: W 24-17

Irish 28-10

Their home game margins of victory are 3, 7, 7, 3 and 3.

Their away/neutral margins of victory are 40, 17, 38, 17, and 15.

That's pretty wild.

Is that the spread? That seems like easy money to me, especially with Daniels out.

Irish win...but don't cover the spread.

I think Manti will have a huge game. His whole reason for coming back this year was so that his mom could experience Senior Day. I think he'll be fired up, and make a statement.

I'll say ND gets the win, 21-3.

@richarddeitsch: NBC says Notre Dame is experiencing its best ratings in seven years. Games are averaging 4.68M viewers, up 76% compared to 2011.

I dont think it would be fixed or anything. But I do believe that ND in the title game would be the highest rated (college) football game ever lol.

It'll be loud as hell for all of these guys, but should be downright jet-engine deafening for Te'o. :thumbup:

Same here. Got them again when the camera was on him and his parents and his mom said, "Thank you, Notre Dame, for everything."

I've been yelling at my TV (and in the stands) all year for the option. Maybe BK finally heard me? LOL

Very close. Looks like the ball may have been coming out before the knee hit.
