Every Week is Hate Week: Week 1, Stanford

Everyone wants to be like Stanford... but that's flat out dumb.

When you step back and take a look at it, college football is full of odd and comical minutiae. That's what makes it great. Every program has quirks that make it unique and also laughable to the outside world.

So each week during the 2015 season, Ben Goren will explore the weird ticks of Northwestern's opponents. Because... well, because Every Week is Hate Week.

First up is Stanford... Goren explains why its atrocious mascot and its turbo-nerdiness are worthy of every Northwestern fan's hate.
