Notre Dame’s passing offense showed significant improvement in a dominant win over Stanford, setting the tone for the rest of the season.
Entering this contest, I wrote and spoke about how vulnerable Stanford's passing defense was. With rankings in the 120s, this unit is truly one of the worst in the country and I was hopeful that Notre Dame could take advantage of this and come out of the break with a more effective passing game that instilled confidence for the second part of the year.
I realize that some folks will be reluctant to indulge in too much celebration after this win. After all, Notre Dame was a 23.5-point favorite. I understand this sentiment, I really do, but disagree with it. This performance, especially offensively, is a big step in the right direction.
