Is it not obvious? I mean Notre Dame just lost at home as a double digit favorite now they go on the road to a crazy environment in the first ever night game at the big house as favorites? Turnovers in one word would be a reason why Michigan can win on Saturday night as the Irish kept shooting themselves in the foot a week ago with 8 penalties, 3 interceptions, and 2 fumbles lost. Defensive Coordinator Greg Mattison knows how to disguise blitzes and coverage where it may throw Notre Dame and the young Tommy Rees at QB off on the road.

Then there is Michigan's offense which put up 532 yards on Notre Dame's defense last year has the same QB that terrorized them a year ago in Denard Robinson. The offensive line is coming off a very good game and has just enough balance to keep Notre Dame on it's toes.


Notre Dame absolutely dominated South Florida and they know it. They doubled them in yardage but turned the ball over numerous times in the red zone including a fumble returned for a touchdown at the goal line in the first quarter. Notre Dame comes in this game looking to have revenge against Michigan after they came into their house and won 28-24 in an offensive thriller as both teams put up 500+ yards of offense. I look for Notre Dame's defense which played much better than the score board indicated holding dual threat QB B.J Daniels and his offense to just 254 total yards. This is the same defense that played so well down the stretch in 2010.



This week we go with the Irish surprisingly getting 3 points on the road I recommend you buy the points so you win if the game is decided by a field goal. My reasoning is Tommy Rees as I do not feel like he will be phased by this environment at all. As a starter Rees led Notre Dame on the road last year in easy victories at Miami and again at USC. Western Michigan was able to move the ball on Michigan and Alex Carder to Jordan White. White is a next level talent who caught 92 balls for over 1300 yards a year ago and caught 12 for 119 vs. Michigan, but Notre Dame has a better talent in Michael Floyd who will make his presence in this game early and often.
