The "Money's" Saying This -- ND vs. Western


As I've shared on a number of occasions -- I don't bet.  Yet, I do enjoy reviewing the manner in which the oddsmakers in Vegas analyze and place the "line" on the game.  Last week, Notre Dame was a "six point" favorite over Pitt -- NOTRE DAME wins by six.  How do they do that?  So, here's what a number of the betting sites have to say about Notre Dame vs. Western Michigan University:

It's Game Day @ Notre Dame!

I'm writing this post this morning from the Best Western in Goshen, IN --  it's Game Day at Notre Dame!  I had the great pleasure yesterday, of spending the entire day on the Notre Dame campus with my good friend Bob Scheuer and his daughter Jackie -- as we walked every inch of "America's Holy Land" -- at least twice! The photo is of Bob & Jackie with Paul Hornung's Heisman -- one of the seven Heisman Trophies on display in the Guglielmino Athletics Complex.  We leave for campus at 7:30 AM to meet the "Marino gang" at South Dining Hall for breakfast -- can't wait!  For those not going to the game today - here's what you can do ALL DAY to get ready for kick-off:




KICK OFF:  2:40 PM EST
