1Q: Picture-perfect Cardinal offense (14-7)

"I'm prepared to call this the best quarter of Stanford offense I've seen. Just some beautiful calls to go against our tendencies." The inspired playcalling has paid off to the tune of two touchdowns in as many drives.

Pregame: Hasn't been a great past two days for Stanford Football. In the game of musical chairs that is the chase for a College Football Playoff spot, the music's still playing, but the song's on its few notes now, and Stanford isn't hovering over a chair. TCU knocking off Baylor was the only help the Card got, as Clemson, Alabama, Michigan State, Iowa and Ohio State all won.
