The lone conceivable explanation for this too-low spread is the notion that Notre Dame will divert its attention to Clemson next weekend. Otherwise, the ingredients for a lopsided outcome apply. The Irish wield a big-play offense, and Tech allows extra-large gains. The Irish have covered in four consecutive roadies, while the Yellow Jackets have just two ATS triumphs in the last dozen home gigs. In its four defeats, Tech has permitted 49, 37, 48 and 73 points. The Irish have the playoffs on their minds, so they are unlikely to step off the gas.
The Fighting Irish showed their ability in the passing game in last week's victory against the Pitt Panthers. Defensively, they look to be strong at all three levels, and they face a Georgia Tech team that has talent, but they are also prone to turning the ball over. And once Notre Dame gets the ball, behind the best offensive in the nation, they are able to run their way to paydirt. Look for the easy cover Saturday.
