Indiana +7 -115 3.5% play

I give the coaching edge here to Indiana, which will be a big factor in a game like this.  Indiana's campus not far away from here and playing in this type of weather is not going to impact them.  What I like the most about htis match up is the fact that Indiana has played really well in the trenches this year in fact when you average out the trench play power success, line yards, and stuff rate on offense and defense Indiana averages 33.3, while Notre DAme averages 50.33.  Both teams played a weak schedule with similar overall statistics.  Indiana's ability to stop the run is going to be a difference maker here.  They hung in their nicely stopping Ohio STate's running game, and Notre Dame's passing attack is nothing special.  Both teams play at a slow pace, and points will come at a premium.  Take the points.
