The college football season is in full swing. Stanford and Pittsburgh are set to square off in the Hyundai Sun Bowl on Monday, Dec. 31. Kickoff from Sun Bowl Stadium in El Paso, Texas is scheduled for 2 p.m. ET.
Stanford enters the contest 8–4 following the regular-season campaign. The Cardinal posted a 6–3 record in Pac-12 play and finished third in the North division. David Shaw's team closed the campaign on a three-game winning streak, capped by a 23–13 win over rival California. Stanford will have to make due in the contest without having star running back Bryce Love available, as the senior is skipping to bowl game to focus on preparation for the NFL draft.
