Cards getting 6 points to ND

What gets me more than anything is the home loss to Northern Illinois as 28 point favorites. It's like that game didn't happen or mattered. It wasn't some fluke upset due to wild plays with crazy turnovers or special teams touchdowns.

UNI beat them in a smashmouth low scoring game. Where was the huge talent advantage ND has? UNI got ranked for beating the Irish and then lost their next game at home to Buffalo.

Now with this knowledge shouldn't the ND loss to UNI prove that ND is average at best? Yet, ND is a TD favorite over the 15th ranked team. It makes no sense. Had Louisville lost at home to UNI they would have fell all the way out of the top 20.

Does anyone believe if it was ND that gave up 70 points to James Madison, they would still be ranked anyway?

Anything can happen with these games and I do believe it will probably be a close game, but it doesn't mean ND should be a 6 point favorite. That is total disrespect for Louisville football or it's a bias for Notre Dame. Probably both.
