I just checked, and I did not misremember the spring game...

http://www.gostanford.com/news/2017/4/15...-game.aspx

Freshman quarterback K.J. Costello handled the first three series but was unable to get the Cardinal on the board, finishing 5 of 13 through the air.

Burns connected on 10 of 15 attempts.

I found the next line of that article somewhat telling about what we saw vs UCLA.

"It was great to a see a fifth-year senior come in and settle down the offense, call the plays and get the guys pepped up again," said Shaw of Burns, ..."[he] had a calming presence."

So, Shaw brings in Burns when Chryst gets injured on the first play of the second drive when presumably the team might need some calming. But, then it's Costello.
Then, when Stanford gets pinned back inside its own 10, it's back to Burns for one series. Presumably the vet less likely to freak out and create a turnover.
That was it for Burns other than the first play on our first drive of the second half starting inside our own 10 again. Though this time it was unclear if it was the no-turnover caution or (more likely) a single play from the Burns-package that they wanted to run.
