The Navy Midshipmen and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish open the regular season on Saturday at Aviva Stadium in Dublin, Ireland. Kickoff is scheduled for 2:30 p.m. ET (NBC). Below, we look at Navy vs. Notre Dame odds from BetMGM Sportsbook. Also see: SportsbookWire’s college football picks and predictions.
Navy begins a new era with new head coach Brian Newberry steering the ship, taking over for the fired Ken Niumatalolo. Newberry and new offensive coordinator Grant Chesnut will still try and run the ball, but there will be a little more passing than we’ve seen in previous seasons.
Notre Dame had a close shave against Navy last season, hanging on for a 35-32 victory but falling well short of covering the 17-point spread. The linebackers will be tasked with stopping the run, and they’re one of the strengths of the Irish D. The secondary is also strong, but they’re unlikely to see many tests.
Wake Forest transfer QB Sam Hartman takes the reins of the offense for the Irish. He has plenty of help at the skill positions, and the run game will be just as potent, led by RB Audric Estime.
Notre Dame is No. 13 in the USA TODAY Sports AFCA Coaches Poll.
