Wake Forest

Virtual Braden Lenzy streaks downfield during Notre Dame's sim visit to Wake Forest.

HLS Sim: Notre Dame @ Wake Forest

September 25, 2020 by Ryan Ritter

While we may not have actual Notre Dame football this weekend, the HLS Sim, safe in its COVID-free virtual reality, is here to provide. The 1-1 virtual Irish hits the road to take on 0-2 Wake Forest in an attempt to bounce back after an embarrassing home non-conference loss to USF. Can ND get back on track? Or will the Sim troll us all and kill all virtual ACC Championship dreams in week 3? ...

HLS Podcast: Previewing Bad Week 4 Football

September 21, 2018 by Ryan Ritter

Yes, the week 4 slate isn't one that just jumps out on paper, but it's still college football and there are still some great games going on around the nation. As for Notre Dame...is that Ian Book's music?! ...

Much Ado About Nothing

November 7, 2017 by Jimmy Grant

For the first time in several weeks, the Notre Dame naysayers (many which are fans) surfaced on message boards and Twitter last night following a 48-37 win over Wake Forest. As I was scanning Twitter and fine tuning my Breeder's Cup selections (my favorite ND player of all-time, Paul Hornung, would be proud!), I began to notice the boards and Twitter start a firey glow. The dreaded talking heads and Notre Dame haters everywhere will likely join that party throughout the week as well. Are you ...

HLS Podcast: Half Waked

November 6, 2017 by Ryan Ritter

A win's a win, even if Notre Dame didn't put the usual choke-hold on their opponent. Still, a 700+ yard performance and a double-digit win falling in the sloppy category seems like a decent place to be in. It's certainly a spot a few other teams around college football would love to be in as well after a couple of major upsets. Let's dig in to the potential playoff implications and get some predictions for tomorrow's playoff rankings in this recap episode. ...

HLS Second Half Preview: Ranking the Competition #’s 5 and 6

October 17, 2017 by Moons

I hope everyone enjoyed their bye week. Did you get that lawn work done? How about spend some quality time with the family? Perhaps you just enjoyed the non-stressful results of Notre Dame being idle while 4 Top 10 teams suffered defeat. Whatever you did, it’s time to put that away because the second half of the season is ahead of us. Welcome to USC week! Oh yes, there’ll be time to hate on the condom school out west, but this preview looks to set the stage for what should be an ...

My Early Prediction For Next Year

January 9, 2017 by Jimmy Grant

I was happy to turn the page on the new year if nothing else than to turn the calendar on one of the worst years of Notre Dame football that I can remember. Starting on New Year’s Day of 2016 and throughout the season it was seemingly one bad moment after another. Now with the national title playing out tonight, our long Notre Dame nightmare can end. Or can it? Since the end of this season, there have numerous coaching changes. When the Irish tee it up on opening day next year, the ...

Game Predictions! ND vs. Wake Forest

November 13, 2015 by Moons

I don't know about y'all, but I'm chill...I'm relaxed. That Pitt game, yes got dicey momentarily in the 4th, but still much calmer than Pitt games of yesteryear. Speaking of 4th...that's where ND finds itself in this week's College Football Playoff Selection Rankings. Now's the time to put up a couple of BIG....and I mean B-I-G "statement" victories versus the softest part of its schedule. Vegas has the Irish by 27...do you trust Vegas or will that Catholic guilt keep you from predicting a ...

Game Preview: ND v. Wake Forest – An Irish Wake for the Deacons

November 12, 2015 by Moons

It's a weird feeling coming off the Pitt game and not being extremely angry. The Irish for the most part dominated Pitt and over and over again exploited Pat Narduzzi's odd decision to leave his lesser talented cornerbacks on islands with Will Fuller. Notre Dame's opponents continue to improve. The fan base is now, kind of hilariously, thrusting victories over Temple and Navy into other team's faces, but hey...them's the breaks. The next coupe of games don't provide the same chance for ...
