Great win against a very strong cardinal defense (with the exception of a couple of fatal errors) and bad weather. ND’s defense was even better than Stanford’s and the offense was more effective than the score indicated. “Footbaw.” Harharhardeeharhar.

A great win for the Irish. Another sub par game for Golson. I could have completed that pass to Koyack. He was wide open from the 10 yard line. The defense won the game. Stanford was totally out played. All that being said it was great to watch.
By the way, I can’t believe with all the help the NBC announcers get they couldn’t clearly see that Robinson’s hands were always under the football in that review.

You said it, mrm! The D was the story today. Have a look at the stat sheet–amazing. If the season ended today BVG ought to get the award for best asst coach/coordinator.

All indications are ND is better than last season and Stanford is not. Regarding Stanford’s tougher schedule, the lost at home to a USC team which lost to Boston College. Irish have too many quality receivers. Big day for Robinson, Fuller, and Hunter. Irish win!

That beautiful Southbend weather will be the key to an Irish victory over those boys from sunny California.

Stanford is good but not as good as Notre Dame. ND is big boy football. Everett Golson is better than Hogan. ND 20- 13. ND defense shows up when we need them most and Brian Van Gorder does another fist pump up DAvid shaw’s behind. 🙂

This game will be a slug fest and Stanford will make ND earn every yard. If the cardinal succeeds in making ND’s attack one dimensional and if the ND O-line struggles in pass protection the day could be long. I hope Van Gorder continues to work his magic with scheming and blitzing. This should represent NDs’ first real test of the season.

And David Shaw is no ordinary coach. He’s also field marshal and Bradford M. Freeman director of football or as Bob Davie would say, footbaw.

This will be close – mistakes will decide. The Irish will need a few short fields to prevail. I look for Jaylon Smith to have a big game and provide the TOs. I think Vannie’s got it picked right.
