STANFORD, Calif. (AP) — Luke Talich scored on an 84-yard fake punt pass and No. 9 Notre Dame won its 10th straight, routing Stanford 49-20 on Saturday night after a scary moment for star running back Jeremiyah Love.

Backups Jadarian Price and Aneyas Williams combined for 178 total yards of offense and four touchdown
