FanDuel has some spicy odds.
If you believe the Notre Dame Fighting Irish football team is going to win the national championship in 2026, there’s good money to be made.
Notre Dame is +600 to win it all this year, which means a bet of $10 would yield you $70 (your original $10 plus $60), according to FanDuel sportsbook.
If your belief in the Irish is more muted, FanDuel has +320 odds for the team to make the championship (but not win) and +130 odds for the team simply to make the College Football Playoff. Perhaps you’re more bullish because of a perceived “light” schedule? The Irish are +160 to go undefeated in the 2026 regular season, according to FanDuel.
For your friends that are Irish haters, there’s also a +500 bet for Notre Dame to miss the 12 team playoff this year. Or perhaps your friend can put his or her money where his mouth is by betting the Irish to win fewer than 11.5 games (-205) while you take more than 11.5 wins (+164) at FanDuel.
If tying up your money until January isn’t appealing, there’s always the game-by-game odds offered by FanDuel.
Notre Dame is a -20.5 favorite over Wisconsin in the 2026 Shamrock Series game at Lambeau Field on Sept. 26. Get in now and you can get -120 odds for them to cover the spread. Doubtful the Irish defense will show up to jumpstart Chris Ash’s second year? Taking the points is -105 odds, according to FanDuel.
Perhaps you’ve got an eye on arguably Notre Dame’s most important matchup of 2026 – the Nov. 7 tilt against Miami (Fla.) at Notre Dame Stadium. FanDuel currently has the Irish as 6 1/2 point favorites, with a $10 bet yielding $19.52 (your original $10 plus $9.52 winnings). Think it’ll be a defensive slugfest in the chill of Indiana fall? The under of 55.5 total points sits at -105 odd, according to the sportsbook.
So what do you think? Do the Irish cover their opener against the Badgers easily?
And does Notre Dame take care of business against Miami on the way to a national championship contending season?
