Irish Air Raid Beats Stanford

Jack Coan came out firing as Notre Dame streaked to a 24-0 halftime lead and rolled over an undermanned Stanford team by 45-14 on Saturday. With the Cardinal overplaying the run, Coan was able to stand inside a clean pocket and find open receivers most of the night. His one miscue led to the first touchdown scored against the Irish defense in four games, but Stanford never threatened to get back into the game. Notre Dame closes its regular season at 11-1 but must still hope for certain outcomes next week in conference championship games to determine their postseason fate.
