One of the great NCAA Football betting ironies is the trend of a “players coach.” In turn, Notre Dame Fighting Irish head coach Marcus Freeman fits that role. And he is quite proud and open about it. When Freeman was announced as the man to replace Brian Kelly, his players went crazy and danced for joy. Freeman and the players acted as if they had just made it to the college football playoff. Since that time, Notre Dame has frustrated gamblers with inconsistent results and value.

Notre Dame at Syracuse SBG Odds Overview
Certainly, Notre Dame Football is one of the biggest offshore bookmaker brands on the board. As a result, the public often pays more in price. And against a Syracuse team that casual bettors ignore, that should remain the case. Syracuse will draw some attention from the Sharp segment. Wise Guys see the Orange as an improved team that will have a large and enthusiastic crowd backing them. Indeed, it will be an electric atmosphere at The Cuse.
Additionally, there is increasing skepticism about Notre Dame. The player’s coach is almost always done in by the players that proclaim to love him. Meanwhile, the tyrants like Brian Kelly almost always get better results. Time will tell on Freeman. But his rookie season has not wowed gamblers.
