Miami-OH RedHawks Betting Preview

The RedHawks faced off against a good Northern Illinois team in their opener this year. Miami-OH held a 3-3 tie at halftime but could only muster a field goal from there in a 13-6 defeat. QB Brett Gabbert notched 227 yards and two interceptions. Cade McDonald led the receivers on eight catches for 105 yards.

Notre Dame Fighting Irish Betting Preview

Over on the Notre Dame side, they faced Texas A&M in their first outing of the season. The Irish had some bumps in the road but came away with a 23-13 win in the end. Game two versus Northern Illinois didn’t go quite so well; Notre Dame would fall in that one 16-14.

Back on Saturday versus Purdue, the Fighting Irish had few issues. Notre Dame jumped out to a 42-0 halftime lead and cruised to the win 66-7. Steve Angeli threw for 100 yards and two scores, but Riley Leonard and Jeremiyah Love did most of the damage on the scoreboard with four rush TDs between them.

Notre Dame vs Miami-OH Prediction

I’m going to take a stab on Miami-OH. Probably not touching it, though. The RedHawks had a nice passing attack going (356 yards) in the loss to Cincinnati, however the team couldn’t rush the ball (24 yards) or stop the run (215 yards allowed) whatsoever. They’ve got their work cut out for them in practice this week.

As for Notre Dame, there wasn’t much to complain about in their mismatch victory over Purdue. The Irish posted 578 yards (362 rushing) and 27 first downs along the way. Miami-OH has almost no chance at winning this one, but I could see them powering out a cover if the Irish ease up after an early lead.
