00:00So, how do you think Notre Dame looked and how do you think they're going to do against

00:07Georgia?

00:08Well, again, last segment, you guys were talking about it.

00:13They got to prove they can beat a Georgia.

00:15They got to prove they have enough on the outside on the perimeter that they can test

00:18Georgia.

00:19I know they're going to be able to run the ball.

00:20They looked great on that.

00:21When you have three running backs, not two, because Williams, they mixed him in there

00:25too with Price, with Love, you have three running backs averaging six yards per carry.

00:30Can they get that going against Georgia, who has a nasty front led by Jalen Walker?

00:35On the other side, don't love the Riley Mills injury.

00:38That's a big injury for Notre Dame.

00:40He was the second team All-American at Sporting News.

00:42He could help them shut down the run, maybe get after this new quarterback, and don't

00:46love that Kirby's had all this time to tell those Georgia guys that nobody believes in

00:50them in the Sugar Bowl.

00:53I absolutely think Notre Dame can win, but I would probably pick Georgia just based on

00:58conditioning, experience, the fact that they've played all these big games.

01:02How do you feel about no quarterback for Georgia?

01:05I don't like their quarterback situation.

01:07Well, I mean, when you lose Carson Beck, there's going to be a drop-off, no question.

01:12But I mean, did you think their offense was non-functional in the SEC Championship game

01:17when Gunnar Stockton came in?

01:18If you believe that, and they're going to be limited what they can do throwing the ball

01:23down the field, I think, because Carson Beck would push the ball down the field.

01:26Their receivers aren't great.

01:27I do love their tight ends.

01:28I think Oscar Delp and Lawson Luckey will get a lot of work against Notre Dame, try

01:33to create some mismatches with the linebackers.

01:37If Trevor Etienne does what he did in the SEC Championship game, though, Georgia will

01:40be fine.

01:41And, you know, you got to protect the quarterback.

01:44I don't like the kid.

01:45I saw him play.

01:46I didn't like it.

01:47I didn't think he did anything.

01:48And this is going to be against a Notre Dame defense that's legit.

01:52Well, and he can't make those mistakes in the secondary, to your point.

01:56He can't throw it to Xavier Watts.

01:58But do you trust Riley Leonard to throw the ball down the field against this Georgia secondary?

02:03That's the other part of this.

02:04Notre Dame will have to make some plays in the air as well.

02:07Jordan Faison played well against Indiana.

02:10No matter how I look at it, Scott, and we can disagree on the pick, I do think it hits

02:14the under.

02:15I think we get a defensive like 21-17, 17-14, you know, type game in the Sugar Bowl that's

02:21maybe an old school headbanger.
