The Notre Dame Fighting Irish defeated the Wake Forest Demon Deacons 28-7. If you just saw the final score, or saw the one clip they showed on SportsCenter, then you would assume that Notre Dame dominated the Deacs. While the scoreboard shows that this was a 21-point defeat, this was arguably Wake Forest's best performance of the season.
Wake Forest was coming off of a bye week, and head coach Dave Clawson said that the team was as healthy as they had been since week two of the season. I thought their health showed on Saturday afternoon.
The Wake Forest defense gave up just 282 yards of offense to Notre Dame.
