Georgia at Notre Dame

When I saw two of the winningest programs in college football history (each are expected to hit major milestones this year - Notre Dame will get their 900th win and Georgia will win their 800th!) playing on September 9th this year for just the second time, I had to wonder why so infrequently?  Digging into the history of both teams I soon discovered that their schedules have been quite restricted.  Between Georgia's SEC games and their regional rivalries, and Notre Dame's yearly rivalries and regional games with Big Ten opponents, it would be quite difficult to find a mutual time to play.

So instead of being disappointed that they haven't played more often, I have decided to enjoy seeing the home-and-home series they will play this year and in 2019.  They may have played only one game, but it was pretty darn special. 

It will be nice to relive how freshman sensation Herschel Walker led the 1980 Bulldogs to a perfect 12-0 record and the undisputed national championship.  Their 12th victim?  The Irish in the Sugar Bowl on New Year's Day in 1981...
