Free Betting Pick: Virginia Tech Hokies +6.5
The Hokies and the Irish are going to have a great battle here, but the slightly better offense will tilt the game in favor of the Hokies. The Irish will have a strong offensive showing, but outside of Michigan this is the next big offense the Irish have faced and back to back ranked games will stress out the Irish players. Final Score Prediction, Notre Dame Fighting Irish will win, but not cover the ATS 28-24.
