I’ve been waiting for a Scott Abell spot like this. I had this penciled in at a flat 40 in the preseason, because I believed two things, one Notre Dame was slightly overrated offensively. And two, that Rice would improve with a better triggerman for this Gun Choice offense. Jacurri Brown gives him the whole package as an option QB. He can make the read, he’s a long strider so he take a beat to get up to a sprint but once he does he covers a lot of ground. You saw some of the pitching as well in the triple game, I liked what I saw. And because he was such a threat you saw more room for Quinton Jackson who had two rushing scores. Notre Dame wins over Service Academies: Navy by 39, Army by 35, Navy by 37, Navy by 39, Navy by 3 for Marcus Freeman. He hasnt blasted Service Academy teams and thats what Rice is on a schematic level. SP+ has Rice 105th. This spread is saying they’re a middling FCS team that plays with tempo. Michigan State on deck to distract the Irish as well. How much do they really want to play the starters here? And we know that Rice can bleed clock with their snail tempo.
