CFB
(173) Texas A&M at (174) Notre Dame
7:30pm EDT - Sep 13/2025

THE PLAY: Notre Dame -6.5 (-110)

Notre Dame comes into this game off a loss to Miami Florida in their season opener.  The Irish also come in off a bye, so we can expect to get their best effort, especially at home.  Texas A&M hits the road off back-to-back home wins over inferior opponents - UTSA and Utah State.  This is a massive class jump for the Aggies, and they are catching a motivated opponent at a bad time.  Notre Dame handled A&M pretty easily on the road last season (23-13), and there’s nothing to suggest we won’t see a similar outcome in the rematch.  My power ratings have this game a few points higher than the market, so there’s some nice value in laying less than a touchdown with Notre Dame on Saturday night.
