Our BYU Cougars vs Notre Dame Fighting Irish Prediction
Notre Dame is more than a double-digit favorite in this game; however, BYU looks to be the best betting option. The Cougars have been excellent against the spread this season, as they are 4-1 through five games. Notre Dame, on the other hand, is 4-2 ATS, but has not faced a defense as talented as BYU this season.
The Fighting Irish are averaging 44.0 points per game this season, while BYU is averaging 34.6 points per game. That said, BYU is allowing just 11.3 points per game at home this season.
Ultimately, both teams have been nearly flawless this season, but because BYU has the slight advantage of playing at home, our Notre Dame Fighting Irish vs. BYU Cougars prediction is: BYU Cougars +10.5.
