The Georgia Bulldogs entered the Sugar Bowl seemingly refreshed after a bye. Despite the struggles against weaker competition many times over the year, Georgia earned a first round bye thanks to winning the SEC championship against Texas.

Among those that picked against Notre Dame, was one of the emerging mouthpieces of college football, On3's JD Pickell. Pickell is fair for the most part when it comes to breaking down games, and he definitely had his fair reasons to pick against the Irish. Although he has picked against Notre Dame many times this season ... I digress.
