We’ll learn a lot about the Stanford Cardinal football team on September 9th when they play the USC Trojans, but until then, we can only fantasize. Let’s do exactly that.
Imagine if Stanford beats USC. The college football world would be shocked, Sam Darnold wouldn’t be the leading Heisman candidate, and Stanford fans would forget the departures of Christian McCaffrey and Solomon Thomas.
Although I think it’s unlikely the Cardinal return to Palo Alto undefeated, I think it’s possible, and if anybody can beat USC in the PAC-12, it is Stanford.
