Line: Notre Dame -10.5
Over/Under: 50.0

Looking over the strengths of these excellent programs, you can get a sense for the high level of competitiveness ahead. Notre Dame is built around a controlling offensive line anchored by LT Ronnie Stanley, our seventh-highest graded LT in pass protection to date. The other side of the ball finds DT Sheldon Day patrolling the interior with the sixth-best run defending grade in the nation.

Temple has previously found themselves as the predicted underdog in three games this season, overcoming each, and no team has scored twenty points (23) on the Owls since September Week 3. Viewing the Temple offense operate, it quickly becomes evident that RB Jahad Thomas is the key and LT Dion Dawkins the seam-creating bulldozer. It’s not until you examine the defense that you discover the Owls collection to be the reckoning force in their early-season dominance

The predicted spread is not only a near-guarantee to fall, the Temple defense holds such a decided advantage over that of Notre Dame’s, the Owls will most likely add another win to their impressive 7-0 season.

Prediction: Temple 30, Notre Dame 21
