Nope. IMO Notre Dame won't play the game in that manner.
Michigan is playing Saginaw Valley State this weekend. Another tough one.
ND opened as a 1 point favorite with a 66.5 O/U
ND is now a 3 point favorite with a 60.5 O/U

Pretty close. Another juggernaut: this time mighty Indiana. Don't believe me....well....they're no. 81 in the FPI rankings, which is ALMOST as good as Ohio. Not Ohio State. Ohio. As in the Bobcats.
Indiana, winners over Indy State and Akron? Indiana, 6-20 the last 2 years?
It’s a scrimmage
As much as we all fell in love with Estime early in the season, we need to get Love 15 plus touches from here on out. Estime is great if he can get through the first line of defense, and then he becomes a brute force with speed. But his slow hesitation looking for a seam drives Me nuts when teams are playing the run and he is easily tackled in this mode. Love on the other hand has incredible burst through the slightest gap and has great vision and balance as well. Estime is a major asset for sure, and I really like Price, but I think Love is our best back and the one most likely to turn marginal OL blocking into a successful running attack.
And I think he will benefit from Love getting touches in the same way he did with Diggs, but even more so. The reality is that our OL is not playing well, and this is hurting Estime’s game big time. Love has the burst and vision and instincts to make our line look decent, and Estime doesn’t.
Yeah, the Hoosiers are not very good this year. Still, they would be a -5.5 favorite over Navy.
