And in order, we've got to prepare in a big way in order to play a big game. It is what it is. So the talented football team, we're getting ready to play. So Marcus has done a really good job there. He's been there for three years now. And his tenacity as a player, when he was a player, and as a defensive coach, you see that in the team. They are in the top, you know, the top, I think almost every defensive category, you know, they're going to run the football. They're a run first team. Got a really good quarterback. He's good throwing the football as well as good, good with his feet. Very similar to our quarterback in what he does and what he can do. Probably a little more designed quarterback runs in the open field on normal downs than us. But they have a, they have a big offensive line. they're young, they have some guys in there that are getting, you know, playing for the first time this season. You see them each week come together more and more, become more of a cohesive unit. So we're excited to play them. We're excited to, you know, play at Mercedes-Benz and excited to have our fans there, excited to have our student body come over and, you know, mile down the road and be able to be a part of the outcome of this game. And I know they will. We're excited about it, and can't wait to go play. We've got a lot of work between now and then to get done. <nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate> They've got good players and a good scheme. They're not an ultra-complicated scheme. They have enough compliments within their scheme to where it looks the same than they'll blitz out of or send pressure out of it, tweaks in the coverage. But at the end of the day, they're going to line up, play four down, and then they're going to play man coverage and challenge you at the receiver's spot, make you throw on time, try to limit the run game with the extra hat in the box. And they got good players doing it. So obviously, you know, the head coach is a defensive coach, but they have one of the better defense coordinators in the country, and Al Golden, you know, calling the defense. And, you know, I don't know him personally, But people I'm very close to that I respect a lot and know played for him and know what type of coach he is. And you see the tenacity and the defense and then take on that personality as well." <nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate> Additional Links: <a href="https://www.si.com/college/georgiatech/football/how-to-watch-georgia-tech-vs-notre-dame-kickoff-time-tv-channel-and-odds-01jabpccdzem" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> How To Watch Georgia Tech vs Notre Dame: Kickoff Time, TV Channel, and Odds </a><a href="https://www.si.com/college/georgiatech/football/georgia-tech-football-luke-harpring-shares-how-much-wearing-no-15-means-to-him-01jabmba6097" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> Georgia Tech Football: Luke Harpring Shares How Much Wearing No. 15 Means to Him </a><a href="https://www.si.com/college/georgiatech/football/georgia-tech-football-espn-s-fpi-favors-notre-dame-this-weekend-vs-georgia-tech-01ja6zrmjq51" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> Georgia Tech Football: ESPN's FPI favors Notre Dame this weekend vs Georgia Tech </a> This article was originally published on www.si.com/college/georgiatech as <a href="https://www.si.com/college/georgiatech/football/bleav-georgia-tech-preview-and-final-score-prediction-for-saturday-s-matchup-against-no-12-notre-dame-01jadtgmeby8?utm_source=RSS" rel="nofollow"> Bleav Georgia Tech: Preview and Final Score Prediction For Saturday's Matchup Against No. 12 Notre Dame </a> . </div></body>
