Notre Dame is in a can’t lose AND can’t win situation this Saturday against Rice. The Irish are favored by more than six touchdowns against the Owls, and are coming off of a performance against Wisconsin that has received some wildly ridiculous negative commentary.

So… there’s really nothing Notre Dame can do for those people this week (and that’s fine).

Besides Notre Dame VS Rice, we are also keeping a close eye on these games inside our staff picks:

Texas Longhorns VS Ohio State Buckeyes
Boise State Broncos VS Memphis Tigers
Michigan Wolverines VS Oklahoma Sooners
Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets VS Tennessee Volunteers
BYU Cougars VS Arizona Wildcats
Iowa Hawkeyes VS Iowa State Cyclones

Just as we have in the past, we will be using Tallysight to keep track of our Notre Dame and college football picks this season. I highly encourage all of you to join in on the fun in the comment section below.
