Statistical advantages
The stored production forecast is Stanford 8.9, Notre Dame 46.1. Notre Dame is projected to win by 37.2 points. SE v3.0 uses recent team and opponent profiles rather than just the full-season averages shown here. The college football model includes home/away context; an independently attributable home-field point adjustment is not exposed for this game, so none is claimed.
Archived pregame team statistics were not captured for this imported game. Current postgame season averages are not substituted into its historical preview.
