One of the most intriguing College Football Playoff matchups is between the No. 2 seed Georgia Bulldogs and the No. 7 Notre Dame Fighting Irish, who looked like world-beaters in their 27-17 home win against the No. 10 Indiana Hoosiers.
Many people believe this game will have a major impact on the 2025 national championship.
When SEC analyst Paul Finebaum was asked about it, he remained steadfast in his praise for the Georgia Bulldogs. While he expressed concern with new starting quarterback Gunner Stockton, as some people have, he still believes the Bulldogs will beat the Fighting Irish.
“I could easily see (Georgia) getting in trouble, but this team really had the most impossible schedule, and the fact they only have two losses is pretty remarkable, so I like Georgia,” Finebaum said.
There are many reasons people believe Notre Dame will win, starting with its running game. However, Georgia fans and Finebaum are siding with Kirby Smart’s experience in big games.
