Notre Dame vs. Oregon State Sun Bowl Prop Bets
We're starting to get into some of the more premium bowl games Friday. Notre Dame will face off against Oregon State in this year's Sun Bowl. The Irish opened as a -11 point favorite. That line has dropped to -6.
Assuming these teams stayed intact, we got a number of Irish 3.45. That's nowhere near the case as neither team has their starting quarterback.
Neither Sam Hartman or DJ Uiagalelei will be playing.
Hartman opted out of this game for Notre Dame to prepare for the NFL draft, while Uiagalelei of Oregon State entered the transfer portal.
Ben Gulbranson (one pass attempt this season) will start for Oregon State and Steve Angeli (25 attempts) for Notre Dame.
Gulbranson went 7-1 as a starter in 2022 before being buried on the sidelines this season. In his last extensive action, he was the MVP of the Las Vegas Bowl when Oregon State routed Florida 30-3 to end last season.
"It's kind of helped me become a more well-rounded person," Gulbranson said of the situation. "You realize football is a gift. It's an opportunity. It's a privilege to play this game. I think being able to kind of step back and see it like this is pretty sweet. I'm cherishing every snap I get, whether it be in practice, whether it be in a bowl game."
