Notre Dame Fighting Irish fans chanted “We want Georgia” during ESPN’s “College GameDay“. GameDay was interviewing Georgia Bulldogs head coach Kirby Smart when Notre Dame fans started the chant.
Of course, No. 7 Notre Dame has to beat No. 10 Indiana in order in the first-round of the College Football Playoff in order to play Georgia in the Sugar Bowl in the playoff quarterfinals.
Kirby Smart is 2-0 against Notre Dame in his career at Georgia’s head coach, so Notre Dame fans may want to be careful about what they wish for. Yes, Notre Dame wants to win to play in the next round, but the last thing they need to do is give Georgia added motivation.
“Well, they’ve got to worry about their first game, first, that’s for sure,” said Kirby Smart. “We’ve got to worry about ourselves. That’s the primary thing we’ve got to do. We’ve got to get better ourselves and we’ve been working really hard here.”
GameDay host Rece Davis egged on Notre Dame fans. “Kirby, they were chanting they want Georgia. I’m not sure they do. (Notre Dame is) Winless all-time against the Bulldogs,” Davis said.
