We sent out a survey earlier this week to Notre Dame fans, and there’s nothing about this that surprises me.

Notre Dame is a 20.5 point favorite over Boise State and that big number doesn’t scare away 88%
of Irish fans as they expect Notre Dame to cover for a nice home blowout win obver the Broncos.
We know the drill… Notre Dame is going to have to win impressively over its next 8 opponents to help their chances of making the college football playoff.
Speaking of which… 86% of Notre Dame fans surveyed bleive the Irish will make the college football playoff with a 10-2 record.

So, for now, it seems like confidence is very high all around ND Nation — which is a far journey from where many fans were after losing to the Texas A&M Aggies just a few weeks ago.
