From the booth

The model favored ND to win, and the call landed.

Notre Dame's got this game locked down at 97 percent, and honestly it's not even close. The Irish are rolling with a twenty-nine-and-a-half point spread, they're ranked third in the country, and the betting market's completely bought in on a dominant home performance. Michigan State's facing an incredibly steep hill to climb here, sitting at just three percent, and while their defense has shown some fight over the last five games, Notre Dame's point differential over that same stretch tells you everything you need to know about where this matchup's heading.
