So close, yet so far away.
I, for one, did not predict that Notre Dame would have the ball at the Georgia 38 with a first down and just over a minute left, a touchdown away from winning the game. The offense, missing several key pieces, seemed not up to the task for much of the game, but there they were, on the verge of scoring 14 unanswered in the 4th quarter to win the game. The defense, who everyone believed would get run over, held Georgia to field goals when they needed, and gave the offense a chance late in the 4th quarter with a must-have defensive stop.
