No. 21 Notre Dame Hosts Boise State Today in First-Ever Meeting on NBC

Odds make Notre Dame a roughly 20-point favorite with a low-60s total, reflecting Boise State’s prolific passing and the Irish’s recent scoring surge.

Overview

  • Kickoff is set for 3:30 p.m. ET at Notre Dame Stadium, with television coverage on NBC and streaming on Peacock and Fubo.
  • SportsLine consensus lists Notre Dame at -20.5 with an over/under of 62.5, signaling expectations for a high-scoring game.
  • Notre Dame is 2-2 after back-to-back blowouts, including a 56-13 win at Arkansas, while Boise State is 3-1 following three straight victories after a Week 1 loss to South Florida.
  • Boise State averages about 520 yards per game behind quarterback Maddux Madsen (1,129 yards, 9 TDs, 1 INT through four games), testing an Irish defense that has improved over the last two weeks.
  • This is the first meeting between the programs, and both made last season’s College Football Playoff, adding weight to how the result shapes their return bids.
