Idaho Vandals vs. Notre Dame Fighting Irish Prediction

I’m on Idaho and the points here. This is a decent Idaho team that’s coming into Purcell Pavilion, and I’m not a believer in Notre Dame to begin with who are now without their heartbeat and leading scorer in Markus Burton for an indefinite period of time with a lower leg injury. The Vandals can hang in this game and I wouldn’t be surprised at all if they won outright. Give me the Vandals and the points here.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Idaho +11.5
