No. 9 Notre Dame playing host to No. 7 Cincinnati is the only top-10 matchup of the weekend but thanks to a hot start from unbeaten and No. 8 Arkansas, the Irish didn’t play host to ESPN’s College Gameday on Saturday.
The Gameday crew did their show from Sanford Stadium in Athens ahead of No. 2 Georgia vs. No. 8 Arkansas but everyone had a prediction for the battle between Notre Dame and Cincinnati. Here is who each picked as Team USA Ryder Cup member Harris English served as the celebrity guest picker:
Fan Vote: Cincinnati (58%)
Desmond Howard: Notre Dame
Harris English: Notre Dame
Lee Corso: Notre Dame
Kirk Herbstreit: Cincinnati
Herbstreit noted that Cincinnati’s defense will be the difference. Will he be right?
Let’s hope not as kickoff is coming up at 2:30 p.m. ET.
