Sam Hartman shook off a slow start and proceeded to throw four touchdown passes as Notre Dame coasted to a 45-7 victory over Wake Forest on Senior Day. Audric Estime ran for 115 yards and a score while backup quarterback Steve Angeli joined the party with a scoring strike to Jordan Faison. Meanwhile, the Fighting Irish defense suffocated the Deacons’ slow mesh offense with a dominant performance. The win lifts the hosts to 8-3 on the season with a road game at Stanford next week.
Five players caught touchdown passes including Faison. The others were Devyn Ford, Eli Raridon, Tobias Merriweather and Jaden Greathouse.
