The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are obviously the better, more talented team, but they’ve had issues defensively through 2 games and have had both games against subpar competition come down to the wire. The Southern Indiana Screaming Eagles will obviously be the more motivated side, and they did hang round with Missouri in their opener, for what that’s worth. I’ll take a shot with the Screaming Eagles and free buckets.
