Point spread: The Cardinal opened as four-point favorites, according to sportsbooks monitored by Odds Shark. (Line updates and matchup report)
College football pick, via Odds Shark computer: 35.9-30.0 Cardinal
Why the Stanford Cardinal can cover the spread
Stanford has won two games in a row since its loss to Oregon, after outlasting Notre Dame last week 38-36. The Cardinal fell down by a point with 30 seconds to go on a short Irish touchdown run but got a big completion from quarterback Kevin Hogan and a 15-yard Notre Dame penalty, setting up Conrad Ukropina's game-winning field goal on the final play of the game.
Stanford took an early 7-0 lead on the Irish, then allowed a 93-yard kickoff return for a touchdown. Later, in the third quarter, the Cardinal took a 28-23 lead, then gave up a 62-yard Notre Dame touchdown run. But Hogan bailed the Stanford defense out, throwing four touchdown passes, along with Ukropina and his clutch kick.
At 10-2 overall, Stanford still clings to slim hopes of making the College Football Playoff.

which would be a great game. Personally, I still haven't gotten over the 1971 Rose Bowl!

That's a safe bet, I'd expect it to be won in the turnover game and by the team that controls the trenches in the 4th quarter.
If one team gets behind and plays catch up it could be ugly.
Good luck.

I think it will be a good game. SC manhandled UCLA in the second half. Stanford is a very good team.
but better. We are already negotiating what to eat. Appetizers and snacks and small plates things, or a he man BBQ with sausages, elk steaks and buffalo burgers, or a homemade pizza & salads, or just bottles of Gin, Vodka and aquavit!! Since I just came off a medical 12 week no alcohol regimen I think the later option is maybe better.....especially if Stanford is way behind at half time.
I guess it is a choice between stuffed or blotto....
You can have both. Typical for most tailgate parties
