It's been a frustrating first half in South Bend.
Georgia Tech trails Notre Dame 13-7 at the half after its offense struggled to get in rhythm and its defense largely rose to the challenge. The offense largely looked out of sync for much of the quarter, with some ineffective blocking all around and Justin Thomas not playing his best game. Harrison Butker's two missed field goals turn out to be the difference in score right now. They've also gotten no help from the referees on several calls (and non-calls), to boot.
The bright spot is that the defense has been strong, largely bottling up the Notre Dame offense except for a few big plays.
