1. Notre Dame scores 50 points

Boston College’s tough defense used to be its staple, but the Eagles have fallen far from grade under Steve Addazio’s watch recently.

In fact, the Eagles are allowing 32 points and 487 total yards per game this season which is a far cry form the good old days. Whenever teams used to play Boston College, they’d expect low-scoring affairs but not anymore. This is a chance for offenses to gain some momentum and Notre Dame will soon find out.

The Irish are coming off two straight blowout wins including a 52-20 victory over a ranked Navy team so to say the confidence is there would be an understatement.

With Ian Book playing well and Chase Claypool having his best game of the season, the Irish will score 50-plus points on the Eagles and piece together a third consecutive blowout that will have Addazio searching for answers with a bowl bid looking grim.

Notre Dame wins this one 52-17.
