What stands out most about Stanford is their grit. For example, Josh Nunes is far from one of the top QBs in the country, yet he still found a way to beat USC. Not many people thought Stanford had a chance in that game since Andrew Luck is no longer around, but that’s also what drives Stanford. They want to prove that they’re a great team, not just a good team that Andrew Luck made great. The only real test Washington had was against LSU, and they were pounded 41-3. They have also given up 174.7 yards per game on the ground. All that said, it will be a close game, but Stanford will find a way to win as usual.
Prediction: Stanford 35 Washington 30
