It's still July, but Stanford looks like a problem match-up on paper. Of course, no idea how our front 7 will play, but it is certainly not a strength. You have to figure that Stanford will come in and grind it out, forcing ND to overcommit into the box...and well, we have seen that show before. Not sure where Stanford's D is at, so expecting ND's offense to simply outscore Stanford is a little ambitious for me at this point.
But, that said, ND doesn't really play a road game before Tallahassee. Michigan and UNC are winnable games at home, and you have to expect they go 3-0 in the other games. So, beat Stanford, and yes, they can go 6-0.
