2-Unit Play. Take #857 Western Michigan (+21) over Notre Dame (8 p.m., Monday, Dec. 20)
I'm going to assume that the motivation levels of these two teams are going to be very different. Notre Dame is in a clear letdown spot. They had a huge game with Indiana in the Pacers' arena on Saturday. Before that they hosted Kentucky in their last home game. Now they are facing Western Michigan. The Broncs should be stoked for a chance to take on the Irish in South Bend. They stink and have nothing going for them this year so this is a big game. The students aren't on campus. It's a few days before Christmas. This is a nothing game against a nothing opponent. I expect a C- effort from the Irish here. They will win this game easily but I don't see them throwing it into that extra gear that has them win it by 25+. Take the points.
Carpe diem. Good luck.
