Notre Dame vs. Texas A&M Odds, Prediction
Although No. 7 Notre Dame is ranked significantly higher than No. 20 Texas A&M, oddsmakers are giving the Aggies a good chance at an upset win. The Irish are still the favorite, as of writing, but the spread is just 2.5 points.
One reason for this is the Aggies’ home-field advantage. And Kyle Field is a good (see: loud) one to call home. Mike Elko also has a proven track record as an assistant coach for Texas and a key figure for Duke’s transformation before that.
