    Notre Dame hasn't had the same injuries?
    They lost their starting LT coming into the season. Starting Center and right guard, then the back up RG. TE was coming off torn acl and didn't hit 100% until mid-season. Their most twitchy WR was on a bum ankle for half the season.
    On defense, they lost their two best pass rush ends. All-American cornerback out for season, 3rd string corner decided to redshirt and transfer. All-American DT missed half the year, came back against Indiana and they lost their other AA DT for the playoffs. Rotational DT has been away from the team for personal reasons since october. Other depth DT missed the first half of the season. Outstanding freshman LB Kingston Viliamu-Asa missed the last 4 games.
    It's amazing Freeman kept it on the rails after NIU and all the injuries.

      @ScrimpBoat I'm not saying Georgia hasn't had significant injuries. But they haven't lost 3 All-Americans on defense alone, literally 3 ALL-AMERICANS.
      The Irish have lost for the season, their 3 best defensive line pass rushing starters, AND 3 starters on the offensive line AND 2 of their top 3 cornerbacks.

      Very True!!! But we see what BK has done at lsu lmfao. He is a jackass and the worst big game coach in history. Has none of the academic restrictions he had ND and his recruiting isn’t any better. I’ve been impressed with Freeman, had ND had an actual OC last year they would’ve had a better shot at winning it all. Only knock on Freeman is overlooking bad teams and losing games they should never lose.

    ND fan here. 1st time seeing y'all and midway through the video I like your serious, well-informed and seemingly unbiased analysis. I do, however, have to correct you on something. While I do not know all of the injuries Georgia has experienced, it appears that you do not know all of the injuries Notre Dame has experienced. They started the season with 60% of the OL out of action. Benjamin Morrison, possibly the best defender in the country, has missed the entire season. Three of their best DL have missed significant time and now Riley Mills is out for the rest of the season. JLove has been dealing with a knee injury. And Leonard couldn't practice with the team until the fall because of multiple injuries he suffered last season at Duke. There's been a few other injuries also to DB's and WR's. Trust me ... ND has experienced more than their share of significant injuries this season. Lastly, keep up the good work. And GO IRISH!!!!!

Additionally the 4 mobile QBs the Dawgs played this year were Alabama-Milroe-41 pts, MissSt-Van Buren-31 pts, Ole Miss-Dart-28 pts, and Gtech-King-42 pts. The 4 highest points against totals of their season and in those games they were 2-2 with an 8 OT win against Gtech and the other win against Miss St which is probably the worst team in the SEC.

The Irish offensive line is top 10 in the nation, maybe top 15 at worst. Just because certain teams have more rushing yards doesn't mean they are a more prolific rushing attack.

    my score predictions tend to be extremely homerish, but ND missing their starting DE(x2), IDL, CB, LT, C, and RG with injury will be the reason they lose. you cant go against Georgia with that many backups and expect to win. Freeman brings his best, but the Irish lose 24-20

      Because as UGA fans we knew Beck didn’t fit this offense well. After we lost our best 2 WR before the season and first couple games due to legal matters, I knew Beck wasn’t going to thrive. He doesn’t have good touch on the ball and we don’t have mcconkey or bowers who would just catch every ball no matter what. If Beck could hit Arian smith in stride, we would have multiple first play of the game tuddys but Beck just couldn’t do it. The drops, I know it’s easy to blame the WR but Beck just doesn’t have the touch he needs to deal with mid WR’s. Gunner being a dual threat, and the WR magically going 12/16 with gunner off the bench showed us who we need out there. Beck will be a good scout team QB after he gets drafted late and that’s the end of the Beck hype

    Okay, let's just state this as clearly as possible, ND is ALWAYS ranked somewhere in that mid 5 to 10 range, and WE (UGA) even scheduled yall ON PURPOSE, and yet over and over we beat yall, we will beat ND again and the media knows it...we (SEC folks) knew Tenn couldnt hang with Ohio State, but thats not a story to grab views, so as usual they will talk about how Notre Dame if they do this or that will give Georgia a hard time or maybe possibly win so y'all listen to those words because this is what happens all the time..... And then when the game is over y'all will realize that we were the better team... It will not be close, 34-17 UGA.... Now when replying to this be sure and get your facts straight, and remember you have never beaten us, yall even lost to your sec version of Vanderbilt, schools that I cannot even properly think of the name correctly because it's irrelevant but they should have never ever beat y'all, and then I'm sure someone will say but it's how we're playing right now, no it means that's part of your season also, that is part of what your team is.... a team that can be beat by basically who the hellever shows up on the other side.... And while this may all come across is very arrogant, and of course some of it is, it's also factually true and the team Notre Dame nose deep down that they have also never beat Georgia, and y'all will not beat us this time ever... But I understand how everything works and I agree it makes for great conversation..... That being said I will go on record as saying Notre Dame is a great school, unfortunately we will not be doing an academic debate, we will be playing football, and y'all know as well as I do we just want to back-to-back national titles, was that the doorstep last year, and lo and behold if this was supposed to be a bad year for us, that isn't it ironic where the SEC champions.... So Play ball folks, just know some feelings are fixing to get hurt...✌️🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈

      If you take average scores of both teams, then average those you get ND 30 GA 22. Scale by SOS (GA 36% harder) and you have ND 30, GA 28. Good call.

    It is what it is. We lost two captains on defense. They have some injuries and beck is out. Going to be a battle. This isn’t Indiana it’s a top 5 team I just hope CMF and staff can scheme

    Georgia 42 ND 17. Notre Dame‘s QB running scheme is not the type of option attack that really gives Georgia a tough time. You have to beat Georgia over the top because nobody including Notre Dame is gonna run on UGA. Wisner and Blue from Texas were getting 200+ a game and couldn’t get but 64 & 57 combined in 2 games against the Dawgs

      If UMASS can run on Georgia then I'm sure ND can.
      I think it’s close. Good football is played outside of the south, despite what some narrow-minded Southerners think.

      @ ND will get Georgia’s best shot, no doubt! But I don't think Georgia blows them out. I'd be shocked if Georgia wins by more than one score, if they even win.

    So this game won’t be close. But here’s why:
    1. Gunner Stockton is going to dominate in this game. He has the Stetson Bennett swagger.
    2. Notre Dame’s undersized & light assed front blitzes a ton and Gunners running ability to get outside of the pocket is gonna torch them with scrambles to suck in the secondary and free up downfield backyard routes which Gunner is great at throwing.
    3. Riley Leonard isn’t Haynes Kings, this ain’t a rivalry, he hasn’t seen a Kirby Smart defense ever, Williams/Walker are monsters unlike anything ND has seen, and nobody successfully runs a conventional rushing attack on Georgia in a big game on the biggest stage.
    4. Georgia is going to come out firing on all cylinders after 3.5 weeks of rest and tired of hearing all the doubters about how good ND is and that this GA team isn’t as good as the past teams.
    5. Georgia will throw deep off the QB RPOs they are installing.
    6. With Arian Smith and Anthony Evans in motion as jet sweep options, ND won’t be able to commit to all out blitzes.
    7. Georgia will just straight bully ND because they have played tougher competition, they are built to be mean, they are battle tested, and they are just plain tougher.
    8. Kirby Smart + Will Muschamp is back full time = No offensive production for ND.

      I remember in 2019, when UGA was better than now & ND was worse than now, at Athens, and everyone said UGA would win by 28+
      ND led at halftime & the game came down to the final minute when ND had the ball 1st & 10 at the UGA 39, down 6.
      Kirby said after the game that ND is a lot better than what the UGA fans always think.
      Rinse, repeat.
