As one of the biggest games of Week 9 in NCAA college football, Notre Dame travels to East Rutherford, New Jersey to take on the Navy Midshipmen at MetLife Stadium in a top-25 matchup.
Many believe that the Irish will prevail, but you can’t count Fox Sports college football analyst [autotag]Joel Klatt[/autotag] as one of them. The former Colorado Buffaloes quarterback wasn’t asked directly who would come out victorious this weekend, but instead was questioned on which teams were overrated, underrated or just right.
Quickly the rapid-fire session got to Navy, as Klatt proclaimed they were underrated and “way better than people realize.” Not only that, he went on to say that the spread was too large and believes that “they beat Notre Dame outright.”
Navy is solid, but they have yet to be tested this fall, while the Irish are the complete opposite. You can tell a lot about how a team responds when getting punched in the mouth.
Unfortunately, that lasted a who game for Notre Dame, but they’ve learned from its mistakes. Hopefully, the Irish extend their winning streak to 6-games on Saturday afternoon.
