While it might be coming too late for the College Football Playoff, there is still a lot to play for to make this a successful season. A 10-2 season with the possibility to make a New Year’s Six bowl is plenty to hang your hat on if you’re Notre Dame.
The only thing standing in the way of that vision is Boston College and Stanford.
Notre Dame is in shape coming off of three straight wins, with the last two being the most solid performances we have seen in the 2019 season. Duke and Navy might now have been the best opponents Notre Dame has had to deal with, but they provide two vastly different challenges.
