The Fighting Irish has had a grueling season thus far losing to both the South Florida Bulls and the Michigan Wolverines. In both games, the Irish beat themselves with multiple turnovers. Otherwise, they looked really good on both offense and defense, and they showed it in week three defeating the Spartans 30 to 13. Tommy Rees has become the full time starter, and the Irish offense seems to just click better with him under center.Michael Floyd is having an All American season, and needs to continue against the Panthers. Flloyd already has 397 yards on 31 pass receptions for two touchdowns.

Pittsburgh began the season with two wins, but lost in week three against the Iowa Hawkeyes 31 to 27. The Panthers will be looking to bounce back in week four. Running back Ray Graham is the center of the Pitt offense having already gained 419 yards on 79 carries for six touchdowns. Graham needs to come up big against the Irish for Pitt to have a chance.

Notre Dame is favored by seven even though they have to play in Pitt's house, and I think they are going to crush the Panthers. The Irish's record....
