Baptists Come To The Bend - Prediction

Well last home game of the year.  10-0.  Who’d of thought, imagined, dreamed?

As of 11-13, limited one seat tickets available for the game.  Call the ticket office.

Wake Forest is 5-5 coming off an old-fashioned whopping, losing to NC State 37-6.  They are 114^th in rushing yards so you can pretty much be assured they will fling the ball down the field at the Irish bend don’t break defense. 

Having said that, we are obviously playing at home so we will play our normal nail- biting, come down to the wire type game.  I suspect the lads will be looking toward USC and I can’t blame them.  Sure would like to see the game put away and clear the bench for the seniors and walk-ons that don’t get to play.  That should have happened in the Pitt and BC games, however not to be.  The Navy game was the only time Brian Kelly cleared the bench.

BTW, rumor has it that Louis Nix is suspended by the NCAA for fighting.  He was ejected from the BC game and a half-game suspension is automatic.  A reporter Sunday tiptoed around the issue and Kelly would not bite.  Interesting if this story breaks or not.  Keep your eyes open for Louis in the middle opening defensive series this Saturday.

Editor Note:  Louis was ejected from the game for unsportsman like conduct.  Not the same as fighting.  He will start.  Suspect Louis's momma is not happy about the rough housing.
