Notre Dame vs Dartmouth Prediction
The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are obviously the more talented team and could blow the doors off, but I’m not sure if they’re good enough defensively to cover these big numbers. Also, the Dartmouth Big Green can push the pace offensively, that makes them dangerous in the underdog role. We’ve seen Dartmouth beat Boston College as a double-digit dog and nearly beat UIC as a double-digit dog. Dartmouth has covered 3 straight games. Give me the points with the Big Green.
