Notre Dame vs Louisville Predictions 2020 – 2:30 PM ET NBC

This game should be easier than most of the upcoming games. Scott Satterfield is into his 2nd year at Louisville after a good start last season. This year is a rebuilding year and they are thin throughout their roster.

They are small on the DL so ND’s OL should be able to push them around even though its described as an attacking defense. Louisville is currently 1-3 and by PM on Saturday they will be 1-4.

They do have weapons especially in their option game with a beat up QB. He is exceedingly good here, but the passing game is not doing well and they are giving up lots of sacks and hurries with the QB getting pummeled.

Prior to last weeks defensive play I wouldn’t be worried, but Louisville can gash them with a running QB and very good running backs.

I look for ND to insert a few new LB’s this game with Bo Bauer coming on strong and might cause ND to move Drew White to the other ILB spot or play Jack Kiser there.

They need to get this “D” fixed with the upcoming schedule coming up. ND also must get Book throwing long with accuracy before they meet Pitt.

Score Prediction: Notre Dame 38 Louisville 13
