The Notre Dame offense has struggled for much of the 2024 season, but Stanford presents the Irish with a unique opportunity. For the run game it is facing a really quality unit, which gives the Irish a chance to show their skills. In the pass game it’s about facing a weak secondary, one that should allow the offense to flourish. Bryan and Trevor go over ways the pass game can and must improve, and what it needs to see against Stanford.
