Every member is required to post dry sheets on August 31 or they will be subject to the humiliation ritual.

What do you all want our first play on offense to be?

Given that everyone expects us to play it safe and hand the ball off to Love, I want a play-action pass with a safe option available in the flat and Greathouse running a deep post route behind the safety. Even if we don't connect, it sets the tone.
Love split out to the slot, jet motion to play action fake, slant from Pauling in the slot for a 15 yard gain. Linebackers have no idea what’s going on

Miami was so poor against motion last year. 4 talent with 10 cent heads.

It’s so frustrating listening to sports talk radio in Georgia. Everyone is saying ND is going to get their ass kicked…. I don’t get it,

It’s strange, the way some people on the radio talk about Miami, it would lead you to believe that Miami played in the National Championship game last season.
You may want to consider calling in on Monday... after we put the boots to the Canes ☘️

Curious what they were saying back in late December.
Not much really, just that ND continues to win in the playoffs, and a lot of UGA players weren’t playing up to standard rather than ND beat them straight up.

The funniest thing about that game is that they beat Texas in the SECCG with Stockton playing much better than Beck and they got fully on the bandwagon of "Stockton is the future and a dual threat, makes use harder to defend" ... and then ND just throttles them and the excuse becomes "well we didn't have Beck."

Exactly the narrative I heard.

Beck was seeing more ghosts than Scooby Do last year. UGA would have had an even worse time in that game with Beck.

Not unusual from UGA fans…..whenever they lose it‘s always “UGA played awful”, never the other team “outplayed us”.

Agree. In the end, QB really wasn't their biggest problem offensively. I think the consistency of their line play was the real problem. I still think ND wins the game, but the strip sack was a perfect example of this.

The ticket situation is weird for this game, there are still lots unsold. Is there a chance of a hostile takeover?

I am aware of the ND Club of Miami tailgate that will be taking place on gameday ($250!!) along with the other activities being sponsored by the club. Does anybody know of any other activities or tailgates that are organized or will be taking place on or before gameday? Thanks in advance for anyone who can provide any information.

I doubt there are enough Notre Dame fans in South Florida to overtake that stadium, and how many people are buying plane tickets on short notice - on a holiday weekend no less - to go to this?
The only time we seem to hostile takeover is when it's an off-campus game in the Northeast against a low-wattage opponent (like the time we played @Syracuse in the Meadowlands in 2016. What a weird scene. Jumbotron was all Syracuse, crowd was all Irish.)

Warms my heart that so many are learning that UGA may be the very worst fanbase in CFB, or least in the running for it. I lived in GA for a long time, hate that program, hate those fans.
