there seems to be an effort to justify picking Notre Dame to win/keep it extremely close by talking about what a great team they are.
A lot of folks are talking about how well they match up with us, how their strengths play well compared to our relative weaknesses, etc.
I'm hearing little more than lip service when it comes to picking Notre Dame to win because our starting QB is out. It's mentioned, of course, but not generally given as the primary reason.
Maybe it's because a lot of people out there don't want to seem lazy by saying that. But, I wonder what most of these folks would say if you asked them if they would pick Georgia if Beck was healthy.
Not sure if that makes sense, but that is what I feel is happening. Everybody and their mother would be picking Georgia to win with Beck, but now, many are picking Notre Dame because they think they are a better team, which doesn't jibe.
