Notre Dame football dominates Stanford: Rapid Reactions in Week 13

Jack Coan picks apart Stanford in the first half

The Notre Dame football team chose Jack Coan to be their starter this season, as he beat out both true freshman Tyler Buchner, and sophomore Drew Pyne. While Coan struggled a bit early on, he has been one of the best quarterbacks in the country as of late, and his great play continued in the first half against Stanford.

Coan lit up the Stanford defense through the first half, nearly throwing for 200 yards, while also finding the end zone twice. We had him at four touchdown passes in our bold prediction piece and based on the first half, that just may happen.
