Looks like Dawgs vs Domers has a pretty good chance to happen...

quote:

Georgia and Notre Dame are moving closer to a football series “later this decade,” Georgia athletics director Greg McGarity said Tuesday. And while no deal is done, and McGarity cautioned that there could be snags, he made clear that he would be eager for it to happen.
“I think it’s an opponent we’ve played, what, one time? 1980? For our fans to be able to go up to South Bend, and for our fans to see Notre Dame play between the hedges, I think from a national perspective it’d be off the charts, as far as interest, as far as intrigue,” McGarity said. “That would be something out of the ordinary that our fans would be very, very excited about.”
The two schools haven’t nailed down which years it would be, but McGarity said it would be in the range of 2017-20. Notre Dame would visit Sanford Stadium, and Georgia would visit Notre Dame Stadium.

Do these games really ever materialize? Every time I get excited about a far future game it gets canned.... I mean every single time.

This will happen because it sounds like both schools really want it to happen.

There really wasn't any advantage to UGA playing Oregon, and Ohio State didn't actually want to play a game in the South in September, when they actually thought about it.

ND wants exposure in Georgia, UGA wants the national exposure of playing ND. Win-win

I would 100% travel for that game. I imagine we'd travel EXTREMELY well for that one. Dawg fans that don't usually travel would save up for a chance to see the dawgs play in South Bend.
