Both of these teams are spiraling downward. We all know about ND, but what happened to Stanford? A lot of guys graduated including their starting QB and 3 OL. Now they lost to injury All American RB McCaffrey, at least for this game. It’s really hard to get a feel for Stanford for they started
With all of the nail biting about this hurricane, the obvious solution to me is to play at Notre Dame. This situation is just too damn scary to put these kids in jeopardy. My guess is that they don’t play this game, which would be the best outcome for ND. This game, if played, will
Duke currently at 1-2 has played tough in both losses to Wake Forest (24-14) and Northwestern (24-13) and they are coached by David Cutcliffe who has taken them to 5 Bowl Games – I think. Cutcliffe was set to join Charley Weis as QB coach when he had to bow out due to open heart
Wouldn’t it be nice if ND came out of the tunnel as jacked as the Michigan State squad. You know, like lets play football instead of looking half asleep. What is always amusing to me is the football ability of each team. MSU rarely gets anyone that ND even wants yet always go toe to

In case you’ve forgotten what a scumbag Urban Meyer is consider the very first thing he did at OSU was poach 3 ND assistant coaches for parallel jobs (although I think Kelly was happy to get rid of them). He then flipped long time OT commit Taylor Decker. It must have killed Meyer to suspend
Stanford comes into this game at 9-2 having lost the opener to Northwestern 16-6 and Oregon 38-36 along with an outstanding all around back Christian McCaffrey. McCaffrey is a 6′ 200 lb shifty speedster who has 2800 all purpose yards. He does everything including kick-offs, punt returns, RB, Pass receiver as well as Passer. This
