ND/UGa game thread

Who’s everyone rooting for? I’m guessing UGA because there’s almost as many ND haters as PSU haters herein.

But I’m going to root for the Domers, would love to see the SEC get shut out of the final 4…….as I was just finishing typing this, I just realized Texas is in the SEC, still thinking of them as a Big 12 team.
 
uh, because the number 2 seed was slated to play in the Sugar Bowl 6 months ago, maybe?

I dont think that's true. You are telling me that if Pitt was the #2 seed, they would be sent to the Sugar Bowl and then #3 seed UGa would be sent to the Fiesta Bowl?
 
Not sure who to root for. Would it be harder for PSU to beat a run-of-the mill ND team or a much more talented UGa team but who doesn't have a QB? Will UGa be able to score enough against the roided up Pedo D?

Both teams are better than PSU

UGA isn’t hurting at QB … Beck ain’t in the same neighborhood as their last few QBs

I want to see ND play Penn State because I'm curious if it sets something off in the universe that causes time to reset to 1950. It just doesn't feel like both of those teams should ever be in a final four in the year 2025.

I am not sure ND is better than PSU. I think PSU is a slight favorite. UGa is much better with Beck but without him, they won't be able to score much so they'll have to win 20-17.

Penn State, Notre Dame, Georgia without Beck (not the they were all that great with him), and Texas are all within a field goal spread of each other, in my opinion. And then Ohio State is like 4 - 6.5 points ahead of them all.
 
They need to stop this fake injury bs. That guy lost his shoe. He wasn't shot in the buttocks. The officials need to just not blow the whistle there. The play starts with 12 players with one writhing on the turf faking a gunshot wound.

ND just doesn’t have the kind of personnel that most of these big dogs do, including PSU. They don’t and they haven’t in decades. They won’t get past UGA in this all-defense struggle. Neither team has much of an offense.

Hopefully UGA can manhandle PSU.

Notre Dame has the ninth most players currently on NFL rosters. I think people vastly under rate ND's talent. They have a top 5 to top 15 recruiting class every year. They are one of the best 7 or 8 programs the last 10 years. They were highly overrated for a while but are now rated appropriately.

ND has a very good defense that creates turnovers. Stockton doesn’t have a feel for their pass rush. If he doesn’t improve quickly, then it’s over.

Bro you really are a dipshit poster. My god, I’m just a visitor here and I see why most laugh at your posts 🤣

That’s an overly simplistic way to look at it. They always have a few elite individual talents on their roster. In this last 20 years or so, they NEVER have an overall roster comparable to the SEC heavies or OSUs, Michigans, etc., and they have not had one single legit NFL caliber QB. They have had a series of game managers without much talent. Ian Boom was about as good a playmaker as they’ve had at QB and that should tell you everything.

It’s most noticeable along both lines of scrimmage.

This isn't a talented UGA team. Least talent they've had in a long time.

They have 57 4* players on in their team. They have top 15 recruiting classes every year and many years are top 10 or even top 5. They are probably the 6th or 7th most talented roster top to bottom in college football every year. Are they Georgia, OSU, or Alabama...no, but they are in the same tier as Penn State, Clemson, and Michigan. They are far from devoid of talent.

I dont think that's true. You are telling me that if Pitt was the #2 seed, they would be sent to the Sugar Bowl and then #3 seed UGa would be sent to the Fiesta Bowl?
If Pitt was the 2 seed, the earth would have stood still.

Good point. ND, for whatever reason, has just struggled to produce the flashy skill position players, especially outside, that most of us associate with blue chip recruiting schools

The teams are sent to the bowls that the conferences have a relationship with. Oregon played in the Rose Bowl because the Big Ten has a relationship with the Rose Bowl. Georgia got put in New Orleans because the SEC has a relationship with the Sugar Bowl. If Pitt were the two seed this year I would imagine Pitt would have gotten sent to Atlanta. If it were next year with the way the games are scheduled for next year, Pitt would go to the Miami because the ACC has a relationship with the Orange Bowl.

They still go by this? That's so stupid. These are quarterfinal games. UGa should be playing in Atlanta. Texas should have been playing in New Orleans as its closer for them and Arizona State.
