After four straight losses the Notre Dame Fighting Irish (17-7, 6-5 ACC) have fallen out of the top 25 rankings. The Irish are in much need of a win and they can get it on Tuesday night when they take on the Wake Forest Demon Deacons (14-9, 5-6 ACC). Wake is coming in on a two-game winning streak and, much like everyone else in the ACC, won’t be an easy out.
