Yankee Stadium will be the site of Saturday’s Army vs Notre Dame matchup in college football. That is a huge game, as these teams have one combined loss between them going in. Notre Dame is a 15.5-point favorite going into this contest from New York, while the total has been set at 44.5. Here, we give you our college football betting picks for this huge Army vs Notre Dame game.
Army Looks to Prove Itself In Huge Test
Army is undefeated so far this season, winning nine straight games and guaranteeing themselves a spot against Tulane in the American Athletic Conference title game already. But they are barely ranked despite being undefeated, as they have the second-weakest schedule in all of college football according to ESPN’s Football Power Index. Here, they won’t be able to hide behind their schedule, with the question being whether they can generate offense against a legitimately good team in a huge spot.
Can Notre Dame Protect Playoff Position?
Notre Dame is in the top-10 in the College Football Playoff rankings and will look to keep it that way by winning this Army vs Notre Dame matchup. The defense of Notre Dame has been incredible all season long, giving up 17 or more points just once all season long. If they can avoid getting off-balance against the unconventional Army offense, Notre Dame could be looking at a ninth win in a row.
Army vs Notre Dame Betting Pick
Army has been a great story all year long in college football. But we expect their undefeated season to come to an end this weekend against the Fighting Irish. We are laying the points with the Irish in this Army vs Notre Dame game, as the defense of Notre Dame should be able to stifle an Army team that just has not faced this caliber of competition yet in 2024.
