You don’t say
The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are 6-1 after taking down the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, 31-13, inside Mercedes-Benz Stadium last Saturday. This week, the Irish travel to another NFL Stadium for an opponent’s home game. Next up… the Navy Midshipmen inside MetLife Stadium.
According to FanDuel SportsBook, the Irish are 12.5 point favorites over Navy with an over/under of 51.5.
The Irish have covered the spread in all non-MAC games this year. I’m not sure how that relates to an AAC school (and a service academy at that) but for all of the groaning and hand wringing Irish fans have done this season — Notre Dame is doing what it’s supposed to do in its wins (and then some).
This week’s game will be at noon on ABC.
It’s fairly rare that the Irish get to play a ranked Navy team, but that’s exactly what they get this week. For what it’s worth, the Middies have been absolutely burying their opponents this year.
