The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are poised to chase their 17th straight double-digit win as they prepare to face the BYU Cougars, with FanDuel Sportsbook listing Notre Dame as a 10.5 point favorite. The game, set at BYU’s home turf, highlights the Irish’s pursuit of tying the Miami Hurricanes’ record for the longest streak of double-digit victories in the past 30 years.
Notre Dame’s current streak reached 16 consecutive games won by at least 10 points following their recent victory against Stanford at Notre Dame Stadium on October 10, 2026. Wide receiver Elijah Burress was among the players celebrating after scoring a touchdown in that game, reinforcing the team’s offensive strength. The Fighting Irish’s dominance has been clear this season, reflected in their unblemished record and the confidence oddsmakers have in their ability to maintain the streak.
In contrast, BYU enters the matchup with a 5-0 record but has not impressed to the same degree. Despite their undefeated status, the Cougars are ranked No. 8 and face the unusual situation of being home underdogs. The 10.5-point spread against them suggests skepticism about their capacity to keep pace with Notre Dame’s level of play. The over/under for the game is set at 47.5 points, indicating expectations for a moderately high-scoring contest.
Spreads are not definitive predictions, but they offer insight into the likely dynamics of the game. Notre Dame’s ability to consistently win by double digits has placed them in rare company alongside the Miami Hurricanes, who hold the record for the longest such streak in the last three decades. Achieving 17 consecutive double-digit wins would match that feat, underscoring the Irish’s sustained performance this season.
While BYU’s undefeated run might suggest momentum, their lack of dominance in games this season has tempered expectations. Notre Dame’s overall form and the confidence reflected in betting markets point to a challenging night for the Cougars. The Fighting Irish will be looking to extend their streak and keep pace with one of college football’s recent records.
The latest confirmed odds have Notre Dame favored by 10.5 points at BYU, with the game’s over/under total set at 47.5 points. The matchup will test whether Notre Dame can push their winning margin into double digits once more and draw level with the Miami Hurricanes’ remarkable streak.
