Odds courtesy of BetMGM as of Thursday, Sept. 3rd
- Notre Dame 24, Wisconsin 14: This feels like one of those clunky early-season games where the underdog keeps it close for three quarters until the favorite unlocks something and pulls away. The kind of game that isn't as close as the score would indicate.
- Spread: Notre Dame by 20.5
- Over/under: 46 1/2
- Moneyline: Notre Dame -1400, Wisconsin +950
