2. The Louisville football team will score 30+ points against Notre Dame

So far this season, Louisville has had one of the most efficient offenses in the country. They haven't really been stopped by any of the three opponents they've faced so far this year. Granted, the first two opponents weren't any good, but the offense played well last week against Georgia Tech too.

Louisville has been able to score at least 30 points in every game this season. Last week was the fewest amount they've scored so far, and they still put 31 up on the board. They've been able to do it in a multitude of ways, showing they can move the ball on the ground and through the air.

As far as Notre Dame's defense is concerned, this will be the toughest defense Louisville has faced. 16 points is the most amount of points they have allowed in any game this season. That's the game that they lost to Northern Illinois because they could only muster up 14 themselves.

Despite that, I think Louisville is going to be able to put points up. This is the most diverse offense Notre Dame has faced so far. Texas A&M wasn't at full tilt offensively in the opener, so Louisville will be the best offense they've faced so far this year. I'm not sure they know how to defend them.

The final bold prediction for this game has to do with what Louisville is going to be able to do as far as their ability to get to the quarterback.
