Undefeated Louisville Faces First Road Test

The Louisville Cardinals are 3-0 so far this season, winning their first three games of the season at home. All three of those wins have come by double-digits, with Louisville being ranked 15th in the nation heading into this critical matchup. But the Cardinals will face their toughest test of the season so far in this game, as they hit the road for the first time against one of the best defensive teams in the country in Notre Dame. Cardinals quarterback Tyler Shough has yet to throw an interception this season and he will need to continue to avoid turnovers for his team to have a shot in this game.

Notre Dame Defense Looks to Continue Dominating

Notre Dame has recovered nicely from their upset loss to Northern Illinois, winning two games in a row over Purdue and Miami (OH) by a combined score of 94-10. The defense of Notre Dame has been phenomenal early in the season, as they have allowed 13 or fewer points in three of their first four games of the 2024 campaign. At home here, the Irish will be expected to once again deliver on the defensive side of the ball to help them recover from their lone loss of the season.

Louisville vs Notre Dame Best Bet

Our best bet for this Louisville vs Notre Dame matchup is for the under to cash, as we expect a defensive battle between these two schools. Look for Notre Dame's defense to continue to play at an incredibly high level, while Louisville will also do enough on defense to keep this game from going over the total in what should be one of the best games of the week in college football.
