I was wrong about the Stanford vs Colorado outcome. This year has been a strange year for Stanford football. One week they’re controlling a top-15 (at the time) Washington team. The next week, they get manhandled by a bad UCLA team. Then, behind the return of KJ Costello, the Cardinal bounced back versus Arizona. On Saturday, their offense was awful versus one of the worst defenses in the country. I think I should stop making predictions entirely for Stanford.
The biggest takeaway I made from the Colorado game was that Stanford has officially lost its identity as the tough, physical team that no one wants to face.
