STANFORD – Stanford lost 12 straight games against FBS teams at Stanford Stadium before winning its 2024 home finale. Now it seems like it can’t lose there.
The Cardinal followed up a last-minute win over San Jose State with an even more improbable win Saturday night against Florida State to improve to 3-0 at home for the first time since 2018 – the last time it made a bowl game.
Gavin Sawchuk was ruled down inches from the goal line on a final, untimed play, a call that was upheld after a lengthy review, to end a 20-13 Stanford win.
“This is crazy,” interim coach Frank Reich said. “Really proud of the guys. I just love the fact that we’re 3-0 at home. We’ve taken some punches and had some down moments. We’ve been money at home. We find ways to win.”
The Cardinal (3-4, 2-2) won as 17.5
