T.M. Selection: Notre Dame.

I like Notre Dame to cover the spread against Cal State Northridge in this game on Saturday. Notre Dame is playing their first game this year here and I think they are going to come out strong and set the tone for their season against this nobody of a team. Notre Dame did not finish last year with a winning record so it is important for them to get every win when they can. A lot of their players are returning from last year including all but 1 of their starters from last year so there will be good chemistry on this team and they should play a very good game here. Cal State Northridge has lost quite a few players from their starting lineup last year including their leading scorer. They are basically rebuilding the team with all new players this year and I don't expect them to have everything together yet for this game. I think this is a great spot for Notre Dame to come and get a big win to start their year off. I like Notre Dame to cover the spread in this game.

T.M. Prediction: 92-56 Notre Dame.
