Notre Dame (1-0) is returning from an overtime thriller in Tallahassee, Florida where they defeated Florida State, 41-38. It will be interesting to see if Head Coach Brian Kelly is able to have his players focused on their game against the Rockets being that they are nearly three-touchdown favorites while rebounding from an emotional win in less than a week’s time.
Toledo (1-0) on the other hand is coming off a 49-10 blowout victory over Norfolk State. The Rockets may have been competing against the Spartans last week, but one must assume their attention was slightly shifted ahead to this week’s showdown with the Irish.
