Stanford secured their first victory of the season last week against rival Cal, in dramatic fashion by blocking a PAT attempt. Sitting at 1-2, they come into Husky Stadium with a banged up and struggling defense and an offense still trying to find its rhythm.
When Washington has the ball, John Donovan will likely try to go heavy with the run game against a defense giving up 229 yards per game on the ground. Stanford has a better defensive line than you’d expect for those numbers, but have been devastated by injuries at linebacker. LB Curtis Robinson is the one to watch out for, he’s the leader of the defense.
