The biggest game of the college football season kicks off Saturday night under the lights at Notre Dame Stadium, and new users can get in on the action with ProphetX promo code TSN to unlock a $40 prediction bonus.

No. 1 Miami (8-0, 6-0 ACC) puts its unbeaten record on the line against No. 11 Notre Dame (7-1) at 7:30 p.m. ET on NBC and Peacock. The Hurricanes hold the top spot in the College Football Playoff rankings for the first time in program history, while the Irish are clinging to the final spot in the field, so a loss could knock them out of playoff contention altogether.

This one comes with plenty of history, too. Miami beat Notre Dame 27-24 in last season’s opener, then edged past the Irish in the final CFP rankings to grab a playoff spot. Notre Dame hasn’t forgotten.

The Hurricanes took a major hit this week when star wide receiver Malachi Toney went down with an injury in Wednesday’s practice. He’s expected to have surgery and is unlikely to return before the end of the regular season. The market reacted fast, pushing Notre Dame from a short favorite early in the week to roughly a touchdown favorite heading into the weekend.

With college football in full swing, now is the perfect time to get started with ProphetX. New users can get started with the TSN promo code for a $40 prediction bonus. The Sporting News has everything you need to know about this weekend’s slate, along with how to get $40 worth of prediction bonuses on ProphetX.

Miami vs. Notre Dame value picks

This line has moved a lot since the start of the week. Notre Dame opened as a 4.5-point favorite, and the Toney news pushed it past a touchdown. That’s a big adjustment for one player, even one as talented as Toney.

Miami still has Darian Mensah under center, and he’s been one of the most efficient quarterbacks in the country this season. The Hurricanes lead the nation at 47.6 points per game. Losing your top receiver hurts, but this offense has enough weapons to keep scoring, and Mensah has spread the ball around well all year.

Notre Dame’s defense is the best unit Miami has seen, holding opponents to just 13.3 points per game. That said, the Irish have had trouble in the red zone against offenses that aren’t close to this level. The Irish also haven’t looked dominant at home, going 1-2 against the spread in South Bend this season.

I expect a close game into the fourth quarter, and getting the hook on top of a full touchdown is the right side.

The No. 1 team in the country is priced like it has less than a one-in-three chance to win, and I think that’s too low.

Yes, Miami’s been shaky lately. Last week’s 38-35 win at North Carolina came as a 13.5-point favorite, and the Hurricanes also failed to cover against Wake Forest and Florida State. But they found a way to win every one of those games, and that counts for something in a hostile road environment.

Notre Dame has also struggled in its biggest spots. The Irish’s only loss came at BYU, a 28-24 defeat in a game they should have won. With their playoff hopes on the line, the pressure sits squarely on Notre Dame, while Miami has already proven it can beat this team.

Miami won this matchup last season as an underdog, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see it happen again Saturday night.

Miami vs. Notre Dame best player props

Miami lost its top playmaker this week, and that should mean a heavier workload for Mark Fletcher Jr. on Saturday night.

Without Malachi Toney, the Hurricanes can’t count on the same quick-strike passing game that carried them through the first half of the season. Leaning on a 6-foot-2, 225-pound senior back is the natural adjustment, especially in a hostile environment where Miami will want to shorten the game and keep the crowd out of it.

Fletcher has already done it against this defense. He ran for 66 yards on 15 carries in last season’s opener against Notre Dame, and he followed that by piling up 327 rushing yards across Miami’s three playoff games.

This season, he’s at 457 yards and nine touchdowns through seven games, which works out to right around this number on a per-game basis. The last two weeks have been quiet, with 41 yards against Pittsburgh and 43 at North Carolina, but he also found the end zone three times in those games. Miami has kept using him in the important moments, and that should continue with more carries available.

Notre Dame’s run defense is legit, allowing just 2.4 yards per carry. That said, even BYU got to 121 rushing yards against the Irish by sticking with it, and that’s the formula Miami should follow. If Fletcher gets 17 or 18 carries, he can get past this total.
