NCAAB: Thursday's 12:15 p.m. ET play

Play: Notre Dame -11.5 -105

Time: 12:15 p.m. ET

TV: CBS

Reasoning: My power ratings say the Irish should be favored by 15. Notre Dame, which is outscoring opponents by 13.2 ppg, is 5-1 ATS when laying double-digits. The Irish won the ACC Tournament title 90-82 on Saturday over North Carolina. They are 29-5 playing the 64th-toughest schedule. Northeastern, which went 11-21 last season, hasn't played a Top 50 team. It's played the 181st-toughest schedule and hasn't played in the NCAA Tournament since 1991. The Huskies are below average in field-goal percentage defense and will face a Notre Dame team that has shot 51.0% from the field. The Irish amass more steals and average just 9.3 turnovers per game, four fewer than Northeastern. 

Record: 314-235-11 (57.2%)
Bankroll: +266.93%
