The Notre Dame Fighting Irish have a lot on the line with the Pittsburgh Panthers coming to South Bend. The 5th ranked Irish are 6-0 and with no Top 25 opponent left on the schedule, they need to win — but they may also need to do so with a convincing fashion.
The Irish are currently 21 point favorites for the 2:30 game against Pitt. The Panthers are 3-3 and have been pretty bad at times with blowout losses from Penn State, and Central Florida. They did just beat what has been a good Syracuse Orange team last week — so there is certainly is some fight.
FIGHT is what we are looking for this week. Against a supremely inferior opponent, Notre Dame has to dig down and find that good old-fashioned Pitt hate in their hearts. Don’t make me get Mark May involved you guys.
You can follow along all week in this stream.
