TonyFernandesSports: Stanford heads into the Pacific Northwest a wounded animal. Three crucial starters are out, and the Cardinal are facing a vastly improved Huskies squad that is well coached. Sorry to say this Cardinal fans, but I see it going the way of the Huskies. Washington plays the game on both sides of the ball with break-neck speed and ferocity. The Cardinal will fight hard, but the short week, and loss of key personnel will allow Washington to prevail 28-17.
Matt Vassar: Tony is right. The injuries from the UCLA game leave Stanford at a disadvantage.
