I think people have largely failed to adjust to reality--in this case, all of ND's opponents are worse than projected, while I'd say the majority of stanford's opponents are better than projected.
If I were Stanford's coaches, I'd try to duplicate Michigan's defense (which kept the game quite close despite an epic 6 TO game by Denard) and Miami's offense (somewhat serious about the latter--despitr the statistics Miami wideouts dropped a couple of potential TD passes.)
20-23 points wins the game. Patterson and Young are most important on offense; I'm hoping to get fully armed and operational Shayne Skov on defense.
