(NCAAF) Fighting Irish (ND) vs. Midshipmen (NAV),
Point Spread: -13.50 | -115.00 Fighting Irish (ND) (Away)
Result: Win
Notre Dame is coming into this game with a 6-1 record this season and they have been on fire since taking their only loss of the season at home to Northern Illinois. They have won their last 5 straight games with their closest game in that span being a 7 point win over Louisville, but the other 4 wins were all by 18+ points. Their defense has also been great in those as they have allowed 13 points or less in 4 of their last 5 games. They are going up against a Navy team that is 6-0 this season and they have been on fire as well, but they have also played a much weaker schedule than Notre Dame has. Navy has only played 1 team over .500 this season and it was a 56-44 win over Memphis who is 6-1, but they still allowed 44 points in that win. Notre Dame has a much better offense and they are going to score points in this game. They have a very strong run game that is averaging 209.6 rushing yards per game and 5.8 yards per carry. That matches up very well against a Navy defense that is allowing 162.8 rushing yards per game and 4.1 yards per carry. That will open up the passing game for Notre Dame and Navy is not the kind of team that is built to play from behind. They only average 13.5 passing attempts per game and have a very strong run game with the triple option, averaging 274.8 rushing yards per game and 6 yards per carry, but Notre Dame also has a very good run defense that is allowing 113.1 rushing yards per game and 3.3 yards per carry. Notre Dame beat Navy 42-3 last season and they have a coach that knows how to defend the triple option here. Once Notre Dame goes up by 2 scores in this game, Navy will not be able to come back with their offense. Notre Dame will cover the spread in this game.
