- Malachi Toney is out with an ankle injury, and his absence contributed to Notre Dame’s spread moving from -5.5 to a seven-point favorite; the total is 54.5.
- SportsLine simulated the matchup 10,000 times and projects 51 combined points, making Under 54.5 its preferred wager with 58% value.

- C.J. Carr is projected for nearly 250 passing yards and two touchdowns; his season line is 1,849 yards and 18 touchdowns against one interception.
- SportsLine says one side of the spread is the better value but does not identify it in the article, while its model entered Week 10 on an 80-77 run against top-rated college-football picks.
Why it matters: For bettors, the clearest published angle is the 54.5-point under: SportsLine assigns it 58% value after projecting 51 points, with an 80-77 model record entering Week 10. The Notre Dame line moved from -5.5 to a seven-point favorite, although the article withholds which spread side SportsLine prefers.
