Miami versus Notre Dame Will Be Featured in 2012 College Football Gambling

When Miami of Florida plays Notre Dame, a rivalry that goes back to the 1950′s will be part of the 2012 college football betting schedule.

The two squads will match on October 6, 2012 in Chicago at Soldier Field. The squads will then participate in a home and home series that should be popular with those that bet on football beginning in 2016.



College football wagering on Notre Dame is usually trendy and when they compete against Miami it should attract lots of bettors. The game in Chicago will give Notre Dame a slight home field advantage while the game in 2016 at South Bend will be a genuine home game for the Fighting Irish. Miami will get the home field advantage in 2017.

Notre Dame leads the all-time series against Miami 15-7-1. The Hurricanes crushed the Fighting Irish in 1985 when Notre Dame was coached by Gerry Faust. Miami beat Notre Dame 3 times during the 1980′s and in each season they went on to win the national tournament. The Fighting Irish got vengeance in 1988 when they beat Miami. Notre Dame went on to win the national championship that season. In 1990 Notre Dame also beat Miami by a score of 29-20. That win knocked Miami from national championship contention and powered the Irish to the Orange Bowl. The squads have not competed since.

Miami arrives at the 2010 season as a dark horse competitor to get the national championship. They are 18-1 to win it all this season so they are gaining regard from those that bet on college football. The Hurricanes participate in what is regarded as a weak ACC Conference. Miami has a schedule that may put them into the national championship hunt and they return quarterback Jacory Harris. They play at Ohio State on September 11th and if they could upset the Buckeyes they would get lots of interest. The problem for Miami is that they’ve got road competitions at Pittsburgh and at Clemson subsequent to the game vs the Buckeyes. Winning on all 3 venues will not be easy. They also have got a game later in the season at home vs Virginia Tech which will be challenging.

Notre Dame is not thought to be quite as formidable as the Hurricanes. The Fighting Irish are 40-1 underdogs to earn it all in 2010. The edge that the Irish have over Miami this season is their schedule. Notre Dame’s most difficult competitions look to be at home versus Pittsburgh and Utah and the season finale at USC.
