Top Navy vs. Notre Dame predictions

After simulating Notre Dame vs. Navy 10,000 times, SportsLine model is going Under 56.5 points at betting apps. Notre Dame's defense is a big factor in this projection. The Irish are tied for fourth nationally in scoring defense, giving up just 13.4 points per game. Navy, meanwhile, ranks just seventh in the American Conference in scoring offense with 29.7 points per game.

The Navy offense is built on the run game as the Midshipmen average 308 yards per game on the ground, ranking third nationally. That keeps the clock running and also plays into Notre Dame's strength as the Irish rank third nationally in rushing defense, giving up just 67 yards per game in that category.
