Has anybody seen the opener for the Notre Dame - Army game next week?
I just checked all the usual sources; I haven't seen anything post as of yet.

Give me one injury update on Not Dame:
*From Game One, how many Off Linemen have gone down?
*From Game One, how many Def Backs have gone down?
Not Dame schedule has been mostly favorable. Will opine if I decide to play the game.
Where's the fuckin power box, Carol?

ND is going to crush them, probably like they did to Navy.

As scary as it sounds, I'm tempted to play Army here. Take this with a grain of salt as neither team has really played anyone other than Notre Dame against A&M in Week 1.
Notre Dame is above average but not spectacular against the run which is Army's bread and butter. If Army has to play from behind, they are in trouble.
Army is very strong against the run which ND has relied on as they haven't had to air it out much against their competition to date. Whoever gets out to the early lead will be big in this one.

To start I'm feeling the +14 is to much. Army is coming off a bye. The D had been playing good. ND will always have more talent. All of that prep school talent.

Just like Navy, Army hasn't played anybody of note. ND burst Navy's bubble and they'll do the same here; Army is nowhere near a legit Top 25 team.

I see the game going similar to the NIU loss earlier this year with my forecasts.

Army's best victory is against East Carolina don't forget that. They are ranked #93 in the nation. Just food for thought.

I went with Army +7.5 1st half. Coming off the bye week they should be well prepared. Could see ND pulling away in the second half so hoping for an early Army score to allow them to play their preferred style.

It’s a no play for me, I think Indiana plus the points is a much better play at this point, haven’t pulled the trigger yet though.

The weather may be a very big factor.
I'm about 40 miles north of the Bronx, right now it's 34 degrees with wind, rain. and snow.
The wind chill is 14 degrees.
That plays right into Army's hands.
Army leads the nation in rushing and tied with OSU in the nation in scoring defense.
Army will chew clock, I lean Army, but love the under.

nasher, I'll argue that it might play into ND's hands as they are also a physical running team with better players.
Army has not really played anyone so them having the best scoring defense is a mirage.

I like getting 2 TDs in a ground and pound game, like I said though I lean Army. but love the under.

No play for me just playing devil's advocate but could easily see ND steamrolling them...
Hard to argue on the under with 2 running teams in bad weather

I have been on Army all year and they treated me well. That said ND this week.

The first undefeated team will get the beatdown coming up. Indiana is a basketball school and Buckies will kick them back to the courts. 🤣

Most hoops schools, like Duke for instance, are mediocre at best in football.
Look at my state university UConn, we dominate hoops, but we suck at football.
Dan Orlovsky is the best football player we ever produced, enough said.
We know we suck, hell, we'll be the first ones to tell you we suck, we go to maybe two minor bowl games a decade, the last time we went to a major bowl Bob Stoops and Oklahoma made UConn his personal meat puppets, blew us the f*uck out.
UConn is 7-3 this year, that's all on Coach Mora, he's stealth as the day is long, you won't hear a peep out of him all year.
It's all about the coaching, always has been, always will be, I respect Mr. Mora.
But I digress, I'm good at making a short story long, like I like to say, brevity is not my forte, don't believe me, ask my pals Peavy or Unde, they'll tell you.
Back on point.
OK, the weather here is still crappy, but the rain and snow has stopped but it's windy AF.
Some towns in Jersey got 20 inches of snow, here on the Long Island Sound we got mainly rain, but the wind makes it conducive to a run game.
Best of luck all.

Thanks for the update. No rain expected for kickoff in the Bronx?

In today’s massive college football matchup, the #5 Indiana Hoosiers look to continue cashing tickets as they take on the #2 Ohio St. Buckeyes.
The Hoosiers have the 2nd best ATS record in NCAA football this season, covering 8 of their last 9 games. Indiana are 13-point road underdogs versus the Buckeyes for today’s 12:00 pm ET showdown on FOX. The Hoosiers have covered their last 5 overall road games and are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games as visitors versus Ohio St. The undefeated Hoosiers are also +395 underdogs on the Money Line.
Meanwhile, the Buckeyes have been a great fade versus teams top ranked teams. Against teams ranked inside the top 15, Ohio St. is just 3-12 ATS in their last 15 games.

The liquid sunshine has moved out.
Battleship grey cloud cover, it's windy AF as I mentioned, just an ugly November day.
