And here comes some meat for the schedule. Stanford comes back to Notre Dame to face its demons. Those demons of getting stuffed on the goaline to lose the game? Well, yes- that and the even uglier demon of pissing and moaning about getting stuffed on the goaline by one of the grandest and most professional whiners in college football, David Shaw.
Stanford
Despite lowering themselves to playing UC Davis in week one, the Cardinal will be fairly battle tested once they arrive in South Bend after games against USC and Washington.
Regardless of whether or not you call this a “rivalry” game, it is an annual game and will be for a very long time. Because of that, a solid FUCK STANFORD is more than permissible for this particular week.
I offer you these thoughts that will probably be repeated later in the post:
- I’m not sure about Stanford right now. I think they might be getting oversold a bit, but they have earned the right to have some presumptions.
- GONE: Skov, Murphy, Reynolds, and Gardner. You have to wonder if they lost too much talent, and just as important, attitude and leadership.
- Ty Montgomery will be targeted a hundred times.
- David Shaw will be predictable on offense. This works if it works, but remember that Wisconsin game? Yep.
- The Legends Trophy is on the line. If that means anything to you, than this shit is big. If not, may god have mercy on you.
3 Reasons To Get Excited
- This is one of those games that the college football playoff committee will be watching, closely.
- Really, this is the first BIG game of the season for Notre Dame. Michigan? hahahahahaaha
- After this game, we can pretty much know where ND sits nationally. Are they contenders or are they the subject of ridiculous articles proclaiming that the Irish should join the Ivy League?

3 Other Games To Pay Attention To
- Auburn VS LSU
- Michigan State VS Nebraska
- USC VS Arizona State
Last Thoughts As An Ending
- I want this win more than Michigan.
- If at all possible, Brian Kelly pantless going for two while up 30 would be great.
- David Shaw will use this loss as a reason to whine to the CFB Playoff Committee that a 3 loss Stanford is WAY DESERVING OF A SHOT.
- Fuck Stanford.
- For all of the Irish fans that have Stanford envy (you know who you are), may I remind you that they still have not won a National Title, and isn’t that why we are here? Use illogical noise for illogical reasons.
