Predict the score: #5 Stanford @ Utah -
Gauss - 10-09-2013
It's Wednesday, so it's prediction time!
Last week Kevin Gemmell won, and now the ESPN bloggers are #3 and #8 in the
overall standings. We need to show those pros that here at the Cardboard we also know our football!
Vegas expects us to win 32-23 (I rounded it up).
My prediction is that
Hogan takes advantage of a weak secondary with 3 TDs, and Cajuste takes advantage of mismatches with 80+ yards. Stanford wins 34-17.

Stanford wins but can't put all the pieces together to pull away until the fourth quarter. Good night for Williamson with thee FGs.

I see us with a 31-7 lead going into the 4th quarter and Utah getting 2 garbage-time TD's in the 4th quarter.

From the ESPN Pac12 Blog:
Gemmell: Utah is getting closer, but hasnt quite gotten over the hump yet. Stanfords offense will be looking to bounce back -- as will Utahs. Last week felt like a good wakeup call for the Cardinal, who own the nations second-longest winning streak. I'm expecting physical line play from both teams, but ultimately a Cardinal win. Stanford 31, Utah 21.
Miller: I like both quarterbacks to bounce back from poor performances last week, but Stanford's Kevin Hogan has a better supporting cast than Utah's Travis Wilson, and Wilson will be facing the Pac-12's best front seven. There should be plenty of good contact at the line of scrimmage. Stanford 35, Utah 20.

I will go with 34-24.

38-21.
We shall see, but I think UW is a contender while Utah is a pretender.

Hey - 10-10-2013
34-20. I don't follow any one else but Stanford, so these guesses are complete shots in the dark. I'm just going to lower the difference a little for Oregon, and raise it to 30 for Cal.
Re: Predict the score: #5 Stanford @ Utah -
Renaissance Man - 10-10-2013
38-21. Only my relative lack of familiarity with Utah keeps me from predicting 50 points for Stanford.

Stanford comes ready to play, gets the lead early, and doesn't let up.

OutsiderFan - 10-10-2013
Utah comes in all fired up with confidence based on the performance against UCLA, but they quickly realize Stanford's OL is much better, and playing a veteran secondary isn't quite the same as playing an inexperienced one.
Barry Sanders returns a punt for a TD, Ed Reynolds gets back on the board with a pick 6 and Hogan thrown 3 TDs...

Stanford 24-13. Offense still isn't clicking but takes advantage of a couple turnovers.
Re: Predict the score: #5 Stanford @ Utah -
CrazedZooChimp - 10-10-2013
27-13 Stanford. Offense has trouble getting in a groove in a tough environment, but the defense forces stops and turnovers, giving us another big win in the field position battle that leads to the win.

SUBuddha - 10-10-2013
I am going with a 37-20 final. I for see a good pick six and a solid running performance from the good guys. Utah is down one of their best receivers and their overall coverage looked suspect against UCLA.
