Louisville at Notre Dame
(NCAAF) Cardinals (LOU) vs. Fighting Irish (ND),
Point Spread: -6.50 | -112.00 Fighting Irish (ND) (Home)
Result: Win
Here's a revenge spot worth noting, and it points toward Notre Dame after last year's 33-20 loss at the 'Ville. Fundamentals don't seem to be lining up the same in 2024, however, after the Cards outrushed the Fighting Irish 185-44 last October. The 'Ville only gained 57 yards on the ground last week vs. Georgia Tech after being able to bully Austin Peay and Jacksonville State in the first two games. The Cards also scored TDs via a botched backwards lateral and blocked field goal return vs. the Yellow Jackets. Meanwhile, there's nothing wrong with this Al Golden Notre Dame defense that's allowed fewer than 10 points per games, and ought to be able to take the infantry diversion away from the Cards and put pressure on QB Tyler Shough, not the most mobile signal-caller. Also note that Notre Dame is gaining 6.7 ypc, while Duke transfer QB Riley Leonard finally got on the board with his first TD pass of the season last week vs. Miami-Ohio. Play Notre Dame
