Congratulations Notre Dame (5-1)

Notre Dame defeats Stanford 31-10.

Brady Quinn threw for three touchdowns, Darius Walker ran for a season-high 153 yards and a touchdown and the Notre Dame defense played its best game of the season in a 31-10 win over the Cardinal on Saturday.

"I'm content with this game," Irish coach Charlie Weis said. "First of all, the defense goes out there and gives them a long drive and basically shuts them down the rest of the day. That's a good thing. The offense I thought was fairly meticulous. It's not about scoring 50 points; it's about how you feel about how you're playing."
