Notre Dame Can Exorcise More Demons Tonight in Blacksburg

Last week Notre Dame exorcised some demons that had been tormenting them for the last few years by finally delivering a complete performance against Stanford and knocking down the Cardinal. Notre Dame has another similar opportunity tonight when they make their first appearance in Lane Stadium for a road test against a ranked opponent – a situation in which the Irish are just 1-8 in their last 9 games.

Playing away from Notre Dame Stadium has not been kind to Notre Dame the last six years. Since beating Oklahoma on the road in 2012, the Irish have won just one game in which both they and their opponents were ranked while playing a true road game.
