Providence at Notre Dame

This one should be fun to watch as Providence averages 85 points per game and ND averages 84. The difference is in defense. The Friars allow 84.7 per game on the road while the Irish allow just 70 per game at home. Notre Dame is a good three-point team as they average eight three pointers made per game on 42% shooting. That spells trouble for Providence as the Friars are just 8-27 ATS vs. teams that make 8+ threes per game. They are also 0-7 ATS the past two seasons vs. teams that make 37%+ of their long-range shots. I like the Irish to win and cover here.
