The Army Black Knights and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish meet Saturday in college Football action from Yankee Stadium. Here’s a Notre Dame vs Army prediction. We will look at this from a betting perspective and determine the best Notre Dame vs Army pick.

Army Black Knights Betting Preview

The Knights have rolled through their schedule so far, notching nine straight wins. Those victories have come versus Lehigh, Florida Atlantic, Rice, Temple, Tulsa, UAB, East Carolina, Air Force and North Texas in succession.

On November 9 in the North Texas Game, the Knights scored seven in the first and last quarters for a 14-3 win. Bryson Daily had an interception with 135 rush yards and two scores on 36 carries. Kanye Udoh added 13 totes for 65 yards.

Notre Dame Fighting Irish Betting Preview

Over on the Notre Dame side, they lost to NIU 16-14 in their second Game. Otherwise it was wins over Texas A&M, Purdue, Miami-OH, Louisville, Stanford, Georgia Tech, Navy and Florida State in their first nine outings.

Matched up against Virginia on Saturday, the Irish took a 28-0 edge into the second half in an eventual 35-14 victory. Riley Leonard put up 214 yards with three scores and an interception, but Jeremiyah Love did a significant amount of work as well with 16 carries for 137 yards and two TDs.

Notre Dame vs Army Prediction

I might take a stab on Army here. This will be the Knights’ toughest challenge of the year, so the extra rest and prep time will be invaluable. Army did their usual thing against North Texas in their last outing, posting 293 rush yards and a whopping 41:37 in time of possession. The defense posted 283 yards (69 rushing), 18 first downs and 4-of-11 on third downs allowed alongside two interceptions. The Knights had a couple of turnovers along the way, which will be a big no-no against the Irish.

Speaking of Notre Dame, on Saturday they posted a pretty solid all-around victory versus a middling Virginia team, despite nine penalties, two turnovers and an ugly 1-of-12 on third-down tries. The defense saved things with five takeaways and 4.4 yards per play allowed, though. That unit will have their hands full with Army on Saturday, which should make for a fun, old-school smashmouth matchup. It’ll be a good one to watch.
