Depleted Irish Face High Scoring Jackets

Ninth-ranked Notre Dame returns home after a costly win in Virginia to face undefeated and 15th rated Georgia Tech on Saturday in an important contest that will bolster the post-season aspirations of the winner. Paul Johnson’s Yellow Jackets run a well-honed option attack and have scored 131 points in their first two games, admittedly against weak competition. DeShone Kizer will get his first start at quarterback for the Fighting Irish, after coming through for the injured Malik Zaire last week with a game-winning touchdown pass to Will Fuller. NBC will televise the action beginning at 3:30 PM Eastern time.
