On Stanford Cardinal podcast with Michael Roberson:

#1 The Notre Dame Fighting Irish (9-3) dominated the Stanford Cardinal (3-9) pretty much from beginning to end at Stanford Stadium for a crushing 56-23 win. The Cardinal struggled to hold back the Notre Dame offense in the second and third quarter.

#2 Fighting Irish quarterback Sam Hartman pretty much had his way with the Stanford defense throwing for 8-14 and 140 yards and two touchdowns.

#3 It was running back Audric Estime everytime he got the football he found daylight and lots of it scoring four touchdowns against a Stanford defense who tried to hold on but he was practically able to shake them off and scored four touchdowns.

#4 Stanford’s only double digit quarter was the first quarter when they scored 13 points but were shutdown shutdown the rest of the way scoring only a field goal in the second quarter and touchdown in the fourth quarter. Notre Dame just dominated on both sides of the football on Saturday night.

#5 Michael this concludes the Stanford football season where they lost their last six out of they’re last seven games to conclude the 2023 season for head coach Troy Taylor it was a season he hoped to get turned around but ended up well below .500 at 3-9.
