If you’re a Notre Dame football fan, you’ve endured more than your fair share of agonizing defeats in the past 20 years. I reminisced about what could have been when I wrote about one of those losses yesterday.

The date was October 13th, 2012 and it was a brisk, fall day in South Bend. The Irish were ranked 7th at the time, while their opponent, the Stanford Cardinal, came in ranked 17th.
Sitting at 6-0 on the season, many Irish fans were starting to believe that this season would be something special.
