Stanford Struggling Heading Into South Bend

Entering this weekend, the Stanford Cardinal are 2-3 on the season. They have lost two games in a row, falling against Clemson and Virginia Tech in their last two outings. The defense of Stanford has really let them down of late, as they have allowed 35.5 points per game in their two recent losses. While Notre Dame's offense has not been elite for most of this year, they did put up 66 points on Purdue earlier in the season and Stanford will need to find a way to get back on track defensively to prevent the Fighting Irish from hanging a big number on them here.

Notre Dame Playing For Top-10 Spot

Notre Dame is 4-1 on the season and has won three games in a row heading into this Stanford vs Notre Dame matchup from South Bend. The Fighting Irish will deeply regret their loss to Northern Illinois at home earlier in the season, as that loss is all that is keeping them from being undefeated on the year. As far as this game is concerned, the Notre Dame offense will look to continue to rally behind dual-threat quarterback Riley Leonard. Leonard has seven rushing touchdowns, more than twice as many scores than he has thrown for as he enters this week with three passing scores. If Notre Dame can keep the Stanford defense off-balance in this game with Leonard, they should cruise to a win and give themselves a chance to move into the top-10 in the rankings.

Stanford vs Notre Dame Prediction

In the Stanford vs Notre Dame matchup on Saturday, we will lay the points with the Fighting Irish at home. Stanford's defense has played poorly over the last few weeks and that is something that Notre Dame should take advantage of. Expect Leonard to keep Stanford guessing with his combination of passing and rushing ability and for that to lead to a blowout win for the home team in this matchup.
