The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are 10-3 SU and 8-4-1 ATS in their last 13 games played at home in the month of September. The Irish have lost two of their last three home games in September, though, and are looking to build off last week’s blowout of Temple with another win over the Georgia Bulldogs on Saturday.
Notre Dame rushed for a staggering 422 yards in its win over Temple with three different players rushing for over 100 yards. Georgia had a solid day on the ground as well last Saturday, grinding out 221 yards against Appalachian State with its dangerous one-two punch of Nick Chubb and Sony Michel. Moving the ball on the ground will clearly be a focal point for both teams on Saturday.
This could be especially true for Georgia, which lost starting quarterback Jacob Eason with a knee injury last weekend. True freshman Jake Fromm played well in his absence, but a road game against Notre Dame would be a far tougher test if Eason is unable to go. The Bulldogs are 0-4 ATS in their last four September road games.
