Notre Dame Football: Stanford Cardinal Q&A with Channel Tree Sports

Folks,,,

After a brief hiatus from our opponent Q&As due to that lovely bye week full of awesome upsets of non-Notre Dame Fighting Irish football teams, we’re #back this week as we prepare for our co-11th-ranked, 4-1 Irish to play host to the 2-3 Stanford Cardinal at Notre Dame Stadium.

The Cardinal are fresh off a couple blowout losses to Virginia Tech and Clemson, and the Irish completely manhandled them last November in Palo Alto as Audric Estime ran roughshod over an undermanned Stanford defense. However, we all remember the last time a struggling Stanford squad limped into South Bend: the 2022 team, in David Shaw’s final season at the helm, won an ugly one 16-14.
