Notre Dame Fighting Irish fan confidence leapt considerably after the team’s thrashing of the Duke Blue Devils, according to a new SB Nation poll.
Eighty-one percent of self-identified Irish supporters said they are confident that the football program is headed in the right direction, up 27.5 percent from last week’s FanPulse survey. (You can sign up here to add your opinion starting Saturday evening.*)
