No. 3 Georgia is set to face No. 7 Notre Dame this Saturday in Athens, Ga., with College Gameday set to be in town. The Fighting Irish are coming off a 66-14 home win over New Mexico State and the team is averaging 50.5 points per game through two games this season. On Sunday, Las Vegas oddsmakers released the opening lines for next weekend.

The Bulldogs were listed as 12.5-point home favorites over the Fighting Irish, per VegasInsider. The line has since moved to Georgia football being a 13-point favorite in the matchup. A week ago, Westgate Las Vegas had the Bulldogs as an 11.5-point favorite in the Sept. 21 matchup, with the Golden Nugget's original line from June listing Georgia as a 9.5-point favorite.

The last contest between these two teams was one Bulldog fans won't soon forget. The UGA faithful invaded Chicago and Indianapolis in the days prior to the game and composed 50 percent of the crowd as Smart and company grabbed a 20-19 signature win. It was Jake Fromm's first start after the then-freshman quarterback was inserted into the game a week earlier against Appalachian State when Jacob Eason went down with a knee injury.

UGA's defense dominated with nine tackles for a loss, three sacks, and three forced fumbles, paving the way for the Bulldogs to make a College Football Playoff run. Notre Dame went on to go 10-3 with a win over LSU in the Citrus Bowl. ESPN actually likes the matchup more, calling it the top non-conference game of the 2019 season. Back in February, an early projection for the game had Georgia seen as a 10.5-point home favorite over Notre Dame.

The early prediction may have thrown some for a loop considering the fact that Notre Dame remains a consensus Top 10 team at this point, including a No. 7 ranking in the coaches poll and AP Top 25 entering Week 4.

The Bulldogs are 2-0 all-time against Notre Dame with wins in 2017 and 1980. Georgia is coming off a 55-0 home win over Arkansas State where the Bulldogs jumped out to a 34-0 lead in the first half and never really let up. The Red Wolves crossed midfield once in the game, penetrated the UGA 40-yard line only twice, and reached the red zone just once. That on trip inside the Bulldogs 20-yard line was thwarted by an interception by Lewis Cine.

Georgia gained 656 yards to ASU's 220. It nearly doubled the Red Wolves first-down total at 27-14. The Bulldogs put up 388 of their total yards through the air and averaged a robust 9.9 yards per play. Following the win, head coach Kirby Smart compared Fromm now to that trip to South Bend two years ago.

"There’s a world of difference," Smart said. "He was a young, nervous, composed freshman and now he’s a confident, experienced junior, and he continues to get better, he makes good decisions, I thought he moved around in the pocket well today, and they gave him some tough different looks."
