A 45-24 win over the Stanford Cardinal gave the Notre Dame Fighting Irish its 10th win of the season. This, of course, is a pretty big deal because it now means the Irish have won double digit games for the first time since a stretch during the 1991-1993 seasons. It also makes the turnaround from 4-8 in 2016 almost complete with its 32-6 record.
A lot of Irish fans won’t be happy unless they’re winning the national championship, and I get that — I really do. Still, no one should take this run for granted given how many seasons have gone by since that run in the early nineties.
