Nah, Georgia loses. Ohio State loses and Penn State loses.
ND hasn’t seen anyone like Dawgs yet. And Kirby will have that QB ready (sorry forgot his name but the one that ran it down our throats!)

Notre Dame is going to be fricked up by Georgia in trenches
Texas 59 Az State 13
Texas can name the score. Az State has no business being in playoffs let alone getting a bye
Agree with the other 2

I think Georgia might be on upset alert

Yeah, it would surprise me too if it's true. Here are his stats post October.
86/127 (68%), 933 yards (186 yards per game). 9 TD, 3 INT. 7.3 yards per pass attempt.
That doesn't seem like a very efficient line. It's okay, but I'd expect it to be outside the top 3 in the nation. The teams that was against were Indiana, Southern Cal, Army, Virginia and Florida State.

He was 17th in October.
He was 23rd in November.
His rating was 128 on Friday, which is 18th best out of 30.

Texas by 100.
Oregon may lose badly to Ohio State.
I don’t have any kind of a read on Boise State.

I guess LSU AD and LSU fans didn't have any read on BK as a HC when he was still at Notre Dame.

They showed during the game

Ok. He played a good 1/2 against Texas which I gave him credit for and another 55 minutes if my math is right playing against the backups of cupcakes. Am I missing anything? Compare that to Leonard’s experience and track record. Again not saying Leonard’s great by any stretch but based your compelling evidence I still stand by what I said 

Posted on 12/23/24 at 6:47 am to DawginSC
College football isnt a fantasy league. Leonard doesn’t have a lot of yards passing bc he doesn’t need to throw a lot. ND is a run dominant team and they do it pretty well. Did you know that? Also, Have you watched Riley play the last 5 or 6 games. His QBR is 16th in the country btw. Not great but not terrible. Btw here’s his rushing stats 135 carries 751 yards 15 TDs. How many QBs outside the academies have more yards or TDs on the ground? Count it on 1 hand probably. Hey you’re entitled to your opinion of course which I respect but you’re def in the minority outside of Georgia fans and the SEC homers on this. Know that.

Since their first bye week, Leonard has 1,342 passing yards, 13 passing touchdowns, three interceptions, rushed for 347 yards, rushed for seven touchdowns, and completed 68.1 percent of his passes

You're forgetting that Kirby has 24 days to prepare. That's lethal.
Kirby has had the most talented team in every game hes played this season and dropped 2 games against non playoff teams.
He can't hide in the weak East and play one or two tough games per year anymore.
Great recruiter, probably as good or better than Saban considering the context of NIL. Good to really good X's and O's coach. But not some brilliant mastermind either.

Also he didn't need to throw the ball in order for them to win outside of whatever happened against NIU.
That said, I do think the obvious play is that if you're Georgia you sell out against the run and make him beat you passing the ball.
I also think there is something to be said for the fact that ND players generally are going to be more intelligent than players at a lot of other schools, Leonard included. That shows if you watch them play. Even a lot of very good NFL QBs make some absolutely boneheaded plays on occasion, and I really haven't seen that at all from Leonard in my albeit limited time watching him. Will that matter? Maybe if it comes down to one play.
I think its a two possession or more win one way or the other though. Either Notre Dame's offense can't move the ball at all and Georgia wins like 23-3 , or Stockton melts down and Notre Dame wins like 20-10
