I'd love to be wrong, but I think ND easily covers. Probably most of it in the first half, then goes in with the 2nd and 3rd team players in the 2nd half, and we keep it marginally closer than it would be otherwise.

ND: 52
UNLV: 13

Notre Dame - 48

The Irish scored 45 against NC, their highest point total. But NC's defense is rated 125th while ours is 68th. Their offense is rated 80th vs. our 95th.

Notre Dame is a good P5 team, but not great by any means. They are loaded with 4* athletes. They are also at home. OTH, their next two games are against Syracuse ( ranked 14th) and Clemson ( ranked 5th). There is no way they aren't looking past us.

Bottom line: This will not be the blowout to the extent some believe.

ND 34 - UNLV 21.

I'm hoping/thinking it may look like UCLA or USC games few years back. Close midway into third...

Notre Dame lost to Marshall. Marshall is currently last in their league.

 

[j. spilotro]

An all encompassing, always valid counter argument is …. Yeah, but UNLV.

Anyone going to the game?

Rebels keep it relatively tight for the first quarter, but a couple of bad turnovers and our inability to match up with the depth and quality of the ND trenches ends up with the Golden Domers walking away and very comfortably have the late scrubs in and we get a late score or two to make it seem much closer than it actually was. ND still covers.

The game is on Dofu sports app!!!

I will link the game.

Thanks

Is it that much trouble for NBC to just show this game on normal NBC channel rather than having me pick a peacock name and password. Now I have to pay $4 bucks. Their currently showing Men’s free skate on NBC. Why not just show the game. Rant over! Go Rebels!

 

[XFactorRebel]

I bit the bullet and subscribed too, there's a lot of content on there the kids and wife have wanted anyway so, at least its competitive to the other services.

 

[XFactorRebel]

That is true tho, its freaking ND, they didn't think this would pull more viewers?

 

[RebelScrub]

 

[Rod_the_Rebel]

Ya I ain’t signing up for peacock or any other trap - they can go shit themselves

[XFactorRebel]

Welp this is gonna be ugly. I though Doug was cleared.

 

[lynaskin]

Three dropped passes and two penalties? How do you cancel a peacock subscription? Asking for a friend.

 

[saulpaul21]

7 oh irish already and ricky white has 2 drops already. Ugh

 

[saulpaul21]

Why do rebs cornerbacks play 10 yards off receiver. Easy completions

 

[calvegas04]

I think Doug is being saved for the remainder of the season, didn't want him getting banged up against ND

 

[Knight Rebel702]

Rebels on the board after ND scores the first 10-7. LFG Rebels!!!

 

[XFactorRebel]

That was some Lex Thomas shit. Love seeing it

 

[Knight Rebel702]

Bailey is in.

 

[XFactorRebel]

That was a momentum kill followed by another, blocked punt

 

[RebelSaint702]

3 and out and then a blocked punt.

Bye bye momentum

 

[RebelScrub]

Anyone got an AM link?

 

[Knight Rebel702]

And we give up another TD of the Turnover! SMFH

ND 17 - 7
