The Notre Dame Fighting Irish fell just a bit short in Athens Saturday, losing 23-17 to Georgia. However, the score could have been a little bit worse, if not for some injuries that were thought to be faked by Irish players.
Of course, injuries are nothing to joke about and should not be questioned in most cases. Fans in Sanford Stadium were quick to react to the sudden spike in Notre Dame injuries on Saturday, but after further review, it looks like they were right.
Video replay, which Gary Danielson and Brad Nestler noticed while calling the game, shows at least one Irish player going down on purpose Saturday.
