Some people claim there are such things as good losses although we’re not in that group.
Everyone knows there are such things as bad losses and lord knows Notre Dame fans have seen enough of those over the years.
Then there is this category of downright epically awful losses and that’s what a sold out home crowd at Notre Dame Stadium was witness to on Saturday night as the hosts laid a complete egg in their 16-14 loss against previously 1-4 Stanford.
Stanford hadn’t beaten an FBS team in 378 days previous to beating Notre Dame on Saturday night and it’s not one that the locals will soon forget about in South Bend.
If you can stomach it, here are the best photos from the forgettable night for the Fighting Irish.
