CITRUS BOWL - Notre Dame wants to end the season on a high note after losing two of its last three games, and the Fighting Irish still has a potent offense averaging 454.9 yards per game, which is #25 in the country. Notre Dame also averages 35.3 points per game, which ranks at #21. Quarterback Brandon Wimbush has thrown for 1,818 yards with 16 touchdowns and six interceptions, and has rushed for 766 yards with 14 TDs. Josh Adams is averaging 7.3 yards per carry and has scored nine touchdowns. LSU depends a lot on the run with Derrius Guice averaging 5.3 yards per carry for 1,153 yards and 11 touchdowns. The Tigers have gone UNDER three of their last four games, including a 30-10 win over Tennessee when the posted total was only 43. Meanwhile, Notre Dame currently has three straight UNDERS with totals posted in the high fifties. The Irish has gone UNDER six of its last eight following an ATS loss and four of five against teams with winning records. LSU is 19-8-2 UNDER its last 29 games overall. The Irish missed out on the last year's bowl games, so they won't take this one for granted. Take the points with Notre Dame and also play the UNDER.
