    The Notre Dame Fighting Irish and Texas A&M Aggies open the season with a Saturday night game in College Station. The opening kickoff at Kyle Field is slated for 7:30 p.m. ET (ABC). Below, we look at Notre Dame vs. Texas A&M odds from BetMGM Sportsbook before making our expert college football picks and predictions later in the week.

    Notre Dame is No. 7 in the US LBM Coaches Poll. The Fighting Irish return 8 starters from a squad that went 10-3 last season. Coach Marcus Freeman is back for his 3rd season in South Bend, and he’ll be alongside a new-but-veteran QB in Riley Leonard from Duke, as the Irish look to make good on prognostications that have them reaching the expanded 12-team college football playoff.

    No. 20 Texas A&M returns 11 starters from last year (7 on offense) and 1 new head coach, the one who coached Leonard at Duke — Mike Elko. The new bench boss in College Station should have a healthy Conner Weigman at quarterback (he missed the last 9 games in 2023 with a foot injury) and a potentially dominant defensive line as he looks to steer the Aggies back from a 7-6 campaign last fall.
