Notre Dame Fighting Irish College Football Pregame Quote, 12/30/2024

Q. Not scored a touchdown in like 400 days or something like that. What goes into your preparation for that?

JEREMIYAH LOVE: I treat my preparation in every game, no matter who we’re playing, I just go into the game and make plays. Just go into every team, every week, score a touchdown. I don’t really go into every game thinking oh, man, I’m going to score a touchdown to keep the streak going. It’s really just something that happened. The media and everybody else kind of like helped me realize I was fixing to make history at Notre Dame. And really just happened. For me just trying to do what’s best for my team and try to make plays when I do.

Q. What is your thoughts on Georgia’s inside linebackers?

JEREMIYAH LOVE: I feel like they’re really good. I got to watch a few games. Watched the Georgia Tech game. And their linebackers are pretty solid. All over the board, not just linebacker, their D-line, their secondary, but yeah, the linebackers are pretty solid.

Feel like they’re going to be a great match-up for me and the backs, really for everybody on the team. Yeah.

Q. You guys had the game last week. Georgia hasn’t played in three weeks. So you guys are kind of getting back, do you think that’s an advantage or not an advantage?

JEREMIYAH LOVE: I feel like it could be an advantage. So I feel like it will be an advantage, especially if you’re a team that haven’t played in three weeks, might be a little bit rusty going into your first game. Especially in the playoffs, got a team that already played a playoff game. But you know, Georgia, they’ve been to the playoffs before, and this isn’t nothing new to them. So pretty sure they know how to prepare for the games.

Q. You talked about inside linebackers. Was there anything else on film that jumped out to you about Georgia?

JEREMIYAH LOVE: They got good players that make good plays. And every team we played, had great players that could make plays. But they’re a great team. Going to be a challenge for us. We’re going to make it a challenge for them.

Q. Did Georgia recruit you at all out of high school?

JEREMIYAH LOVE: Yeah, I got recruited by Georgia. Did a visit to Georgia. Got a pretty nice facility stuff like that. But they recruited me through school. Great coaches too. Got to talk to the coaches, the running back coaches.
