By John Buhler
Notre Dame football is one win over Syracuse football away from the College Football Playoff.
Notre Dame is in fantastic shape to beat Syracuse and make the four-team field.
The No. 2 Notre Dame Fighting Irish (9-0) will host the struggling Syracuse Orange (1-9) on Saturday afternoon. This will be the final game of the Irish’s regular-season slate in ACC play. If the Golden Domers do what is expected on Saturday, they will have essentially clinched a College Football Playoff berth before even playing the Clemson Tigers in the ACC Championship game.

This is a game the Irish will cakewalk to an easy victory. It has been a challenging year for us all and especially for Dino Babers’ football team. Syracuse is arguably the worst team in the ACC this year. No doubt that Notre Dame is going to win. What is in doubt is if they will cover the massive 33.5-point spread, as well as if this game’s point total will hit on the over.
Because Notre Dame will get off to a slow start, Syracuse will do enough to cover the lofty spread. As for if this game will hit on the over, it will, as the Irish will be able to turn it on in the second half to get well ahead of the 52-point over/under total. Notre Dame will be in rare form in the latter minutes of this contest, as the Irish will already know they are certainly playoff-bound in 2020.
Prediction: Notre Dame 42, Syracuse 17
