Notre Dame vs Clemson Predictions

Irish Editor December 28, 2018 Bowl Game, Predictions Tagged Cotton Bowl, Ian Book, Notre Dame vs Clemson

No mystery here – it’s Book vs True Frosh Clemson QB Trevor Lawrence. Notre Dame absolutely can’t allow him to just sit back and pass. By the way, he is an excellent passer – so ND must pressure him the entire game and hit him early and often. If ND can get to him they

Heading into the matchup with Clemson, Notre Dame is a 14 point underdog – take the points. I happened to see the Clemson win over Syracuse 27-23 and they were damn lucky. Okay I’ll get into this game a little later in the week. 12/20 was early signing day and all 23 commits sent their

Notre Dame vs USC Predictions – 8:00 PM EST ABC

Irish Editor November 23, 2018 2018 Games, Predictions Tagged Notre Dame vs USC

I’ll start out knowing ND sent a lot of very good teams to the Coliseum only to lose legitimately and stolen by the refs – so like Leahy said we have to score 5 TD’s with only 2 counted. So this Saturday we find another undefeated team vs a 5-6 USC team that’s had a

Notre Dame vs Syracuse Predictions – NYC 2:30 PM EST NBC

Irish Editor November 16, 2018 2018 Games, Predictions Tagged Dexter Williams, Ian Book, Notre Dame vs Syracuse

Syracuse strategy is pretty simple – play fast, keep the ball and score 40 points. In other words just hit 40 and you will win out. Syracuse is ranked 12 with an 8-2 record losing only to Clemson 27-23 and Pitt 42-37. They should have won the Clemson game. They do have an all around

Notre Dame vs Florida State Predictions

Irish Editor November 9, 2018 2018 Games, Predictions Tagged Brandon Wimbush, Ian Book, Notre Dame vs Florida State

Without Ian Book ND loses basically half its offense. With Wimbush ND was averaging about 24 points. It will be Senior Day and it looks like ND will wear green Jerseys. With bad and cold weather this could all add up to disaster. Look, Florida State is lousy this year 4-5 but they are loaded,

Notre Dame vs Northwestern Predictions – 7:15 PM EST ESPN

Irish Editor November 1, 2018 2018 Games, Predictions Tagged Notre Dame vs Northwestern

It doesn’t matter what should on paper be a ND blowout. NW coach Fitzgerald has a deep seeded hatred for ND, not to mention the Chicago recruiting yearly battle. NW is not doing bad this year sitting at 5-3. They’ve beaten Purdue, MSU, Nebraska and last week Wisconsin. They only lost to Michigan by a

Notre Dame vs Navy Predictions – San Diego 8PM EST CBS

Irish Editor October 26, 2018 2018 Games, Predictions Tagged Notr Dame vs Navy

Navy is 2-5 so it’s not the good Navy teams we’ve seen in the past. The problem with Navy is cut blocks which have always resulted in ND injuries. ND defense has to get them off the field. Navy’s game is to eat the clock. As far as cut blocks – that can go both

Notre Dame vs Pitt Predictions

Irish Editor October 12, 2018 2018 Games, Predictions Tagged Notre Dame vs Pitt

Pitt has been a thorn in ND’s side for like 50 years, no matter how bad they are they play out of their minds against ND. This is a bad 3-3 team destroyed by Penn State and UCF. They did however knock off a pretty good Syracuse team last week 44-37. They basically ran the

Notre Dame vs Virginia Tech Predictions

Irish Editor October 5, 2018 2018 Games, Predictions Tagged Ian Book, Jerry Tillery, Notre Dame vs Virginia Tech

Notre Dame’s Defense is going to win this game along with FG kicker Justin Yoon. Unfortunately for us, Tech’s new QB lit it up against Duke in his first start 31-14. QB Ryan Willis passed for 332 yards and 3 TD’s so our defense has to light this guy up in his 2nd start. Get

Notre Dame vs Ball State Predictions

Irish Editor September 7, 2018 2018 Games, Predictions Tagged Notre Dame vs Ball State

This game is an excellent opportunity for ND to play a number of 2nd, 3rd teamers and just maybe ND’s freshman QB. This game should get the starters out early and provide much needed actual playing time for I hope many of the backups. Freshman can play in 4 games and it won’t affect their
