Notre Dame Football: Marcus Freeman called the Stanford game a rivalry

On Monday, Marcus Freeman spoke with the media to finish up Notre Dame’s business with the win over BYU, and to move forward with Saturday night’s game against the Stanford Cardinal.

Freeman didn’t wait to get the question — he called the Stanford game a rivalry right away.

“Going into this week moving forward, it’s a rivalry game. We’ll have a motivated Stanford team that is really actually if you watch the film and I haven’t watched as much as I need to yet and I will, we returned at 6 am Sunday morning, but I know just watching that Oregon State game, they should have won that game.
