Over at Irish Illustrated, we don’t see a pick from Kevin Sinclair this week, but Football Scoop John Brice has Notre Dame walking away with a win.
“Notre Dame moved up another notch this week in the College Football Playoff Rankings and has a fairly straightforward path to be positioned to not only make the CFP’s first-ever 12-team field but also to host,” he writes. “That mandates taking care of business. Notre Dame has played one atrocious half in 36 quarters of football. I’ll take that body of consistency, and a mature Notre Dame team to handle its business in what ordinarily would be its last time inside Notre Dame Stadium till the Blue-Gold Game but should not be the case this year.”
Brice has the Irish winning 38-10.
