Week twelve of the college football season has some big time showdowns and this one of those games.
The Navy Midshipmen make the trip to South Bend Indiana to take on the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. The Fighting Irish have won the last two games played between the two teams.
Navy Midshipmen
No one has been talking about the Navy Midshipmen but they have had a lot of success this year with their only loss coming against the Memphis Tigers.
[dfads params=’groups=220&limit=1&return_javascript=1′]
The Midshipmen run the triple option to a lot of success and come into this game averaging 40.1 points and 358.2 yards per game on the ground.
On the defensive side the Midshipmen have also been strong giving up only 18.1 points per game and in this game that defense is going to need to be strong. If they want a chance in this game it’s probably going to take a couple of big play, and they can’t fall behind early.
If they fall behind early it’s going to be very hard to come back.
Notre Dame Fighting Irish
On the other side of this matchup is the Notre Dame Fighting Irish who have had an okay season but in the step-up games they have struggled. Their two losses this season have come against the Georgia Bulldogs and the Michigan Wolverines.

On the season the stats look pretty similar to the Midshipmen although their offense doesn’t score as much. On the season they are averaging only 34.2 points per game using a balanced attack on offense.
At quarterback the Fighting Irish are led by Ian Book who has thrown for 2,014 yards, 21 touchdowns, and six interceptions.
In this game the Fighting Irish need to have the defense step up and slow down the triple-option attack. The triple-option is a hard thing to prepare for and it could throw them off early.
This would be a game they probably wish they had an extra week to prepare for, but they played their last game last Saturday against Duke.

Like stated above, the triple-option is hard to defend and I think that is what will happen in this game.
4* Free NCAA Betting Pick: Midshipmen ATS
The Fighting Irish need to be careful this week because I have them on upset alert. I think the Fighting Irish find a way to pull it out late, but the Midshipmen will cover the spread.
