8:00 p.m. ET: Notre Dame Fighting Irish (6-5) at Pittsburgh Panthers (5-7)

Spread: Notre Dame -4
Total: 127

Notre Dame squares off against Pittsburgh as both teams look for their first ACC win of the season. Notre Dame took care of Texas A&M-Corpus Christi by 10 on Wednesday. Pittsburgh is coming off a 64-55 win over Jacksonville on Tuesday. John Hugley is averaging 14.5 points and 8.1 rebounds to lead the way for the Panthers. Femi Odukale is also a key contributor, producing 11.3 points per game. The Fighting Irish have been led by Dane Goodwin, who is averaging 15.3 points and 5.5 rebounds. Notre Dame hit 16 3-pointers in its most recent game and the Fighting Irish have scored at least 80 points in consecutive games for the first time all season. Notre Dame has won 5 of its last 6 matchups with Pitt including an 84-58 victory last January. The Irish have been disappointing this season and Pittsburgh has played some tough games against good teams however these Panthers struggle to score. Notre Dame’s offense has been clicking lately and should be enough to cover the spread. Take the Irish to get the job done here.
