Irish Illustrated’s staff gives its predictions for Saturday afternoon’s crucial matchup vs. No. 14 Georgia Tech in South Bend.

With Tim Prister’s weekly game preview still to come, the rest of the Irish Illustrated staff offers a few thoughts on this week’s matchup against the Rambling Wreck of Georgia Tech.

Before the season I marked this as a Notre Dame loss. Then the Irish lost five starters for the season by the second week. So naturally I’m flipping to a win. What’s changed is the production and health of Sheldon Day and Isaac Rochell on the defensive line, two players big enough, quick enough and smart enough to disrupt Georgia Tech’s offense.
