2019 Notre Dame Schedule Analysis
Notre Dame will start with a tricky game in Louisville. The matchup in on a Monday Night and nationally televised, but if the Irish want something big this season, they should win the outing.
New Mexico is coming right after in week two.
One of their biggest challenges is in Georgia in week three. It’s actually a game they can afford to lose.
First, because it’s against a potential playoffs team and secondly because it is on the road and early in the season.
The following weeks will be against Virginia and Bowling Green where there isn’t room for an upset.
Clash Of Rivals Against The Trojans
The classic against USC will be at home. Although it’s a rivalry game, the meeting against the Trojans will see the Irish as favorites.
Their second major challenge of the season will be on the road against Michigan. Last season these two programs met early, and Notre Dame came out on top.
This time the teams will be right in the middle of the season with plenty to prove.
Face An Easier Second Half Of The Season
The next four games shouldn’t be a problem against Virginia Tech, Duke, Navy and Boston College.
The last meeting of the season will be at Stanford against the Cardinal. Taking that meeting too lightly could wreck the season for the Irish.
Notre Dame 2019 Roster Changes
Last year quarterback Ian Book took the job over from Brandon Wimbush after one month into the season.
Book looks to lead an offense that averaged 37.2 points per game in 2018 and was good enough to drive the team into the College Football playoffs.
Jafar Armstrong will be the leading force out of the backfield in 2019, trying to replace the sensational Dexter Williams.
Tony Jones Jr. should also have plenty of touches to form a good tandem.
Wideout Chase Claypool is the number one guy in the department, but don’t forget about Michael Young, who is ready to make a name for himself.
Notre Dame’s defense has a solid pass rush unit that usually announces its presence by hitting opposing quarterbacks without hesitation.
Three Names You Need To Keep An Eye On
The front seven is led by Julian Okwara, Khalid Kareem and Daelin Hayes.
Myron Tagovailoa-Amosa and Jayson Ademilola should lead the secondary defense. Although the team is a little short on talent in that department.
Notre Dame to Win the National Championship?
The Irish are listed at +4200 to win the National Championship. The implied probability of that play is about 2% to become a winner.
Notre Dame 2019 Win Total Prediction
Notre Dame will be once again a contender to be in the College Football playoffs.
The problem is not being inside a Conference that could hurt them in the long run.
The Irish are a double-digit win squad, but the losses against Georgia and Michigan are pretty much a given.
