Stanford hadn’t played a game in two weeks, and in many ways it showed. The Cardinal ended their finals break with an ugly but convincing victory at San Jose State, 78-58.
“It’s a real thing to be off for two weeks and expect to be this sharp,” said Jerod Haase. Though this game was never in doubt, they turned in far from a sterling performance on the offensive end. The shooting splits in the first half were an anemic 42/20/33. They also saw another 8 shots blocked by the Spartans, and turned the ball over on 8 occasions.
