Like the Fighting Irish today for a couple of reasons.
For the most part, the only team that has beat Notre Dame is Notre Dame. They have really self destructed in the Red Zone against the good teams this season. As think back to their loses:
South Florida–red zone destruction, lightning postponed, bizzarre game they gave
Michigan–BCS team, last 2nd miracle, moved the ball up and down the field on GOOD defense!
USC–Would be BCS team, self destructed with some crazy plays
Stanford–think they just got beat by a better team
All this adds up to Brian Kelly kicking their ass for a month, getting 2 QB’s ready to move the ball on FSU. FSU has to stop this 2 pronged attack and it won’t be easy.
FSU offensively make Ohio States offense look like Oregon’s……they are piss poor and ND’s defense has kept them in many games and have been put in some tough situation.
All this leads to Notre Dame covering the 3.5 and probably winning straight up. Good luck!
