College Football Predictions: Picks for Top games of Week 4
No. 6 Ohio State (-3.5) at No. 9 Notre Dame football (7:30 PM EST, NBC)
The College Football Week 4 game that everyone is talking about is Ohio State at Notre Dame football in a rematch of last season’s game in Columbus, won by the Buckeyes.
Notre Dame’s defense was impressive in that game and did a solid job of containing C.J. Stroud. Notre Dame football just couldn’t get anything going on offense.
With Sam Hartman playing quarterback and surrounded by a bevy of playmakers, scoring points shouldn’t be an issue. Audric Estime is also college football’s leading rusher and with the way Ohio State has struggled against elite running backs dating back to the last Michigan game, Notre Dame is certainly going to test the Ohio State defense.
Kyle McCord has started playing well and Marvin Harrison Jr. is a problem for every team he faces. The Buckeyes are still the Buckeyes and they also have an elite defensive front.
Hitting Sam Hartman is their best chance to leave South Bend as a winner. However, Notre Dame football seems legit and with Hartman at the helm, Notre Dame football finds a way late.
