Notre Dame vs. Wake Forest: Public Bettors Love Fighting Irish
Our CBB Public Betting Information page indicates that 71% of public bettors are currently backing Notre Dame when it comes to the spread. This information is subject to change throughout the day, however, so be sure to check the link so you’re receiving the most up-to-date public betting data.
Burton Leads Fighting Irish to Victory
Markus Burton had 21 points (8-15 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, eight assists and one steal over 36 minutes during Tuesday’s 84-80 victory over Georgia Tech. The ACC Freshman of the Year was impressive in the Tourney opener, ending just two assists shy of a double-double and carrying the team when they needed it the most. Burton will try to deliver another impressive display when they take on Wake Forest on Wednesday.
Carr Nearly Perfect on Saturday
Andrew Carr closed Saturday’s 81-76 win over Clemson with 17 points (6-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds and three assists across 35 minutes. Carr missed just one shot from the field — a three-pointer — and a free throw, but his contributions were still meaningful as the Demon Deacons secured the victory against Syracuse in the regular-season finale. Carr has scored in double digits in four of his last six appearances, and he should be an offensive asset for Wake Forest in the ACC Tournament.
