On Saturday, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish did what elite football programs are expected to do: dispose of lesser opponents in dominant fashion. After a 66-14 thrashing of the New Mexico Lobos, the Irish look to be firing on all cylinders heading into their marquee top ten showdown with the Georgia Bulldogs in Athens next Saturday.
While there are a lot of positives to take away from what was a one-sided matchup against New Mexico, there are some areas of improvement that Notre Dame must make if they hope to knock off third-ranked Georgia on the road. That said, after this dominant performance, this upcoming matchup looks like it will live up to the billing.
