It’s nothing to be surprised at. That team has been extremely overrated since he took over. They have handled a bad MSU team lately, but can’t touch Ohio State. He’s finished higher than 3rd in the division exactly one time.
 
I know we shouldn’t count moral victories but I’ll take that one. No one thought the game would be that close especially since ND was down thier top RB’s
 
Notre Dame is getting crucified for faking injuries on defense twice to stop Georgia's hurry up offense. The defense was gassed so guys took dives and wallowed so the rest of the unit could get a breather. The second time saw a 5 minute break as a Notre Dame player who was "poked in the eye" found himself completely unable to walk.

This isn't new. A bunch of teams do this. Pretty sure the player has to come out for 1 play though.

It was really bad a few years ago before they started hitting offenders with a 15 yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty. It's creeping back.

I say if you're caught doing it the player should be ejected from the game. Faking injuries makes real injuries be taken less seriously.

The problem with ejections is that it discourages people with actual injuries to go down, further increasing the odds of severe injury (especially head/neck injuries). And also, it seems pretty harsh to accuse someone of feigning an injury when you don't know if they are injured or not. It seems pretty minuscule in the grand scheme of things.

The faking injuries thing is really tough to police. The first one was clear as day. Notre Dame player is tapped on the shoulder from a teammate and then proceeds to go to the ground. That should have been called. Other times it isn’t so obvious.
 
Okay Georgia loses at home to a bad South Carolina squad. How high do the Gamecocks rise in the rankings?
 
Georgia should fall 10 at least. South Carolina played an awful game and Georgia still lost.

Guys, Fromm is the most overrated QB in college football. He's built a reputation in easy throws and exploiting a dominating run game. Stop the run game and Fromm folds.

There goes the only chance ND had to ever come close to the playoffs. Needed UGA to win out and Clemson to lose
