Collin Wright scored on a 19-yard interception return in the first half, and Stanford’s defense made a momentum-changing goal-line stand in the third quarter on the way to winning its home opener.
“What I loved about it most was it was just a complete team win,” Reich said. “I’ve been around some good team wins but this is right up there with the best team wins I’ve been around.”
