Nevada has a nice squad returning in ‘09, but they’re entering a hornet’s nest this afternoon. Weis knows his jobs on the line, and he’s gonna have his men looking to put a hurting on their WAC counterpart. This line looks out of whack as well. When something looks too good to be true, it usually is.

While Nevada HC Ault’s pistol offense is highly entertaining, it’s gimmicky, and it’s going to have a tough time getting the job done against a pumped Notre Dame stop unit looking to improve upon last year’s decent numbers. As long as they’re able to limit the Wolfpack’s ground attack, I like its chances of containing QB Kaepernick. Hey, Jimmy Clausen! Yeah, you! Impress me already!

The Irish have dropped three of their four season openers under Weis, and have gone 1-3 ATS during that stretch. Look for them to feed off their impressive bowl win, and dominate the Wolf Pack en route to the home win and cover.
