The Notre Dame Fighting Irish head to Atlanta this Saturday to take on the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets.
The Fighting Irish are 5-1 this season, with their lone defeat coming against the unranked Northern Illinois Huskies. Since that loss, they have won four straight by a margin of 174-41. QB Riley Leonard looks to be in command of the offense, and their defense continues to play at a high level.
As for Georgia Tech, they might be one of the season’s biggest surprises. The Yellow Jackets are 5-2 and an impressive 4-2-1 against the spread.
While their win against the Florida State Seminoles does not look nearly as impressive with the Seminoles struggling so much, they are still 3-2 in conference play and just one win away from bowl eligibility.
Led by junior QB Haynes King, the Georgia Tech offense has been balling. There’s no denying that Brent Key is building an absolute juggernaut in Georgia Tech.

NBC Sports Bet’s Brad Thomas leans toward Georgia Tech covering the spread:
“Player props are not available for this game yet, but I will be eyeballing Riley Leonard’s rushing over if it’s between 35-40.5. He’s ripped this number with some consistency, and Georgia Tech is not great at stopping the QB run. However, if you want action for this now, you should take the Yellow Jackets +11.5. The Yellow Jackets have seen a ton of success against the run and have an offense that certainly can keep up with the scoring attack of Notre Dame.”
