SOUTH BEND — Notre Dame football, despite pushing its winning streak to five games, remained at No. 11 in the latest US LBM Coaches Poll. Unbeaten Iowa State (7-0) jumped the Irish (6-1) despite Notre Dame’s solid showing in a 31-13 win over unranked Georgia Tech on Saturday in Atlanta.

Sometimes boring can be progress. And that’s exactly what Notre Dame accomplished on Saturday against Georgia Tech.

Georgia Tech has one of the most explosive offenses in the ACC and is one of the most dangerous touchdown-scoring teams in the red zone. The defensive injuries for Notre Dame are beginning to mount up, with the most recent being Ben Morrison 's season ending hip injury announced earlier this week.
