Bowl projections are incredibly interesting this season as some think the Pac-12 and Big Ten will have played enough games for their schools to be potentially College Football Playoff worthy while others don’t think that’s the case.
What comes of it is an interesting discrepancy in where various teams end up in the projections as a result.
Yesterday we looked at the latest from Jerry Palm at CBS, who had Oregon in the College Football Playoff. As fallout, Notre Dame was projected by Palm to make a return trip to Orlando in the Cheez-It Bowl.
USA TODAY has also updated their projections with a different end to 2020 for Notre Dame however and it’s against a team that was one of America’s sweethearts last weekend.
The Projection:
Orange Bowl – Miami, FL
Notre Dame vs. Georgia
This would be only the fourth ever meeting between Notre Dame and Georgia and the second in a bowl game if it were to play out.
Georgia has won all three previous meetings with Notre Dame, making them one of a very few programs to ever not lose to the Fighting Irish.
