ND -2.5, o/u 49.5

Cautiously optimistic and ready to get hurt again, this team is absolutely stacked and it's only getting better.

Challenge for ND will be to stick with running game no matter the score and not overwhelm Carr with the playbook. ND often wants to come out with some air raid shit in “big games”. They should feed Love and Price all night

Final 24-21 ND

I'll be believe in the passing game when I see it. Both of those transfer wrs could be good but I've been waiting my whole life for them to have an explosive passing attack. They sure as shit ought to be able to run the ball, though.

Stadium is an absolute shithole.

Easily the biggest game of the year for ND. I'm laying the points and hammering the under, this will be a defensive struggle as the QBs work into shape.

ND overachieved last year and largely caught lightning in a bottle over the playoff run. The loss of that safety to the nfl (forgot his name, but wore 0) is a big loss. He was the most dominant safety in cfb imo, and basically shut down 60% of most opposing offenses just bc no one could go deep.

this is not to mention ND defense lost the best coordinator on either side of the ball in Golden.

I think their defense takes a major step back. On offense, they have a generational talent in love, who is not a big guy, injury prone, and likely wont make it through 17 games or whatever is now required to reach the championship.

i heard the QB battle was close, which could be a good sign that they have multiple talented QBs but more often means no one really stood out.

So ND is possibly starting a QB who is new, not ready, and on the road in conditions completely unlike south bend. They have a great but fragile RB who for whatever reason they often ignore. And they have a defense that will be worse than last year, maybe a lot worse.

I like ND but this is a very losable game for them.

On the plus side, da U has not found a way to build a team out of their recruits in twenty years and I dont think they start this year, by bringing in a QB who has no chemistry with the program. Also a losable game.

Miami takes the win, merely due to homefield advantage, and all their recruits playing HS in swamp conditions

in retrospect kind of weird to like the squeaky clean Catholics and the thuggish ruggish The U but whatever

But Carr is a twink by comparison and crashes down on first contact.

A mere 36 seconds burned lol.
