Notre Dame Fighting Irish vs. Clemson Tigers Predictions
The Fighting Irish have been on a roll, with their offense putting up some outstanding numbers. They are on pace for their highest scoring season in history and have scored at least 40 points in six of their nine games. Their wide receiver, Chris Tyree, leads the team in catches, yardage, and scores. His 46-yard touchdown against USC three weeks ago helped the stadium remember to breathe. The punt return last weekend triggered an avalanche. And his 65-yard catch at NC State helped keep the Wolfpack at arm’s length.
On the other side, the Clemson Tigers have had a rough season. They have lost two straight games and sit at 4-4 on the season. Two of their losses have come in overtime, so they have been in most of those games. However, they have struggled to protect their young quarterback, Cade Klubnik, who has been prone to mistakes that go beyond interceptions. When Klubnik gets comfortable in the pocket he can be dangerous, so Notre Dame will need to pressure him.
Both teams have strong defenses, with the Fighting Irish ranking in the top five nationally in five major pass defense categories, including ranking third in lowest completion percentage allowed. The Tigers, on the other hand, have a stout run defense and have held their opponents to 102 rushing yards or less in six of their eight games. This game will likely be a defensive battle, with both teams looking to make big plays on offense to secure the win.
Notre Dame Fighting Irish vs. Clemson Tigers Pick
The Notre Dame Fighting Irish have been performing exceptionally well this season, especially on the offensive end. They have been putting up impressive numbers and are on pace for their highest-scoring season in history. Their wide receiver, Chris Tyree, has been a key player in their success, leading the team in catches, yardage, and scores. His ability to make big plays in crucial moments has been a game-changer for the Fighting Irish. Given their recent performance and the momentum they have built, it is likely that they will continue their strong play against the Clemson Tigers.
On the other hand, the Clemson Tigers have been struggling this season. They have lost two straight games and their young quarterback, Cade Klubnik, has been prone to making mistakes. While their defense has been strong, particularly their run defense, their struggles on the offensive end could prove to be their downfall in this matchup. Given these factors, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish against the spread seems to be the right pick for this game.
