The Stanford Cardinal football team finished with a narrow win over Pitt at the Sun Bowl and ends their season with a 9-4 record. Now that the season is complete, we’ve had less than a few hours to reflect. On what note did the Stanford Cardinal finish the season? Looking back on the course of the year, how do we digest what all happened in determining the ultimate question everyone involved with a program has: was this a successful year?
For some, a winning record and bowl win means, of course it was. To others, maybe this is a rebuilding year the Cardinal can improve from and “next year, we’ll be better”.
