Notre Dame vs Stanford

good enough to be ranked 9th.

I wouldn't say a lot of help they really only need Oklahoma to lose in my mind to get in. If you are saying to guarantee a spot then sure they need Iowa, Michigan State, and Oklahoma to lose.

I think we only need OU to lose. I would consider that as needing a lot of help, because OU isn't going to lose.

Yes, I am trying to jinx them.

In a Perfect world Mich wins and goes against Iowa in the Championship game and beats Iowa. No way a 2 loss Mich team jumps us. Oklahoma loses this weekend. Then its 100% we are in. Another kicker is if Bama loses either this week or in the championship game. Then ND is also in.

We just take care of business and beat stanford and we will be good. Got to have faith.

Interesting stats for this game...

The Irish's 29th ranked Rushing game versus Stanford's 29th ranked Rushing defense.

Notre Dame's 37th ranked Overall Defense versus Stanford's 37th ranked Overall Offense.

The score of both Notre Dame's and Stanford's games with USC = 41-31.

Stanford's pass defense should be a key to victory for the Irish. They can be had in the passing game.

Nothing left to say but, show me what ya got Irish!

Agree it's time for them to show the selection committee, I really think that the could jump Notre Dame if they beat Stanford, I mean look at how much Michigan State jumped from beating Ohio State in a shit show of a game that neither team looked that great in frankly.

I think we win by 10.

I hope you are right about ND beating Stanford by 10. If we play well for 4 quarters we will get our "impressive win" many say we need to get back into the top 4. Beating Stanford impressively is a very tall order. Shaw has been HC since 2011 and suffered only 4 losses by more than one score. Under Shaw, Stanford has only had one loss at home by more than 1 score (Oregon 2011). Shaw vs. Kelly, 2-2.

The last time we beat Stanford by more than one score was 2006, a year when Stanford won only one game.

Uhhhh ... MSU ... remember them? Your homerism is melting your brain, brah.

I HIGHLY doubt MSU is gonna lost to PSU in EL, today.

It's Saturday November 28, 2015 ... and Stephan Taylor still hasn't scored.

Well so far this game has been a good one. The late turnover hopefully doesn't take the wind out of Kizer's sails because he played pretty well for the most part. If Oklahoma State can win I like Notre Dame's chances.
