The No. 3 Georgia Bulldogs host No. 7 Notre Dame on Saturday night in a huge game for both schools.
The Irish need a big-time win on their resume, but the Bulldogs won’t be an easy opponent to play in the raucous Sanford Stadium atmosphere.
Georgia QB Jake Fromm’s first career start came against Notre Dame (in South Bend) back in 2017, when he posted the lowest QBR of his career. However, ESPN analyst Tim Tebow isn’t worried about Fromm this time around.
On Saturday morning’s SportsCenter, Tebow said Fromm has developed into one of the best players in the country since that first Notre Dame game:
“Well, it was also his first start on the road in a hostile environment,” he said. “He’s played in a lot of big games since. He’s taken his team to an SEC Championship. He’s played in a national championship. He’s been in big environments. And also, we need to mention something, he’s got the best offensive line in the country and one of the best running games in the country with D’Andre Swift who’s going to take a lot of pressure off him.
“But I also say this — Jake Fromm is one of the best — not just quarterbacks — players in the country. He’s efficient. He’s effective, and he’s smarter than almost everybody on the field. He’s knows what’s going to happen before it happens, and that gives him a huge advantage, especially in this game tonight.”
How will Fromm fare against the Irish this time around? We’ll find out tonight.
Kickoff is scheduled for 8 p.m. Eastern time on CBS.
