00:00In Zeno, if Notre Dame wants to make the college football

00:08playoff, they need a victory over Louisville on Saturday in

00:12South Bend six and a half point spread in favor of the Irish

00:16number 15 Louisville number 16 Notre Dame total 45 and a hook

00:22now the cards after a great start this year on undefeated

00:26three and oh big victory last week covering as a double digit

00:30favorite against Georgia Tech line actually closed at like

00:33eight and a half, but still Louisville gets a win. It was

00:37last year that Notre Dame was a six and a half point favorite

00:40against the cards after a monumental victory for the

00:44Irish where they came up short against the Cardinals. What

00:48happens in 2024 in South Bend on Saturday? Well, I like

00:54Notre Dame. Look, I mean Louisville escaped last week in

00:57a game. They probably should have lost Georgia Tech made a

01:00bunch of mistakes. They they had the benefit of not one but

01:03two non offensive scores. They had a defensive score and then

01:07the block the block field goal that they ran back for a

01:10touchdown. So that's not commonplace every single week

01:14and if they don't get the benefit of that against the

01:16Irish in South Bend, I don't like them in this spot here.

01:19Notre Dame is nine and one ATS is a home chalk of thirteen

01:22points or fewer and six one ATS in their last seven

01:25appearances when facing a team that they're playing revenge

01:28against. So this is a spot here where Notre Dame feels like

01:33they remind everybody that this is a team that's ready for the

01:36college football playoff and what happened to them a couple

01:39of weeks ago was an aberration and they're not that team.

01:42They're the team that we all thought they were coming into

01:44the year. So I'll lay it with the Irish at home here.
