A few thoughts to supplement prior contributions:
Consider parking on the west side of campus, say near Tresdidder. You will have a great walk (20 minutes?) through the heart of the campus to reach the stadium. Also, after the game, you can leave the back of the campus and head up 280 to the airport -- more miles but probably less time, given post-game traffic along EL Camino and downtown Palo Alto on way to 101.
Another option would be to skip the rental car and take the train. Caltrain station is less than 10 minute walk from stadium and the train is 40 minutes to Millbrae station near the airport. Not sure about transfer time from Millbrae station to the airport.
You can also consider flights through San Jose Airport which, like San Francisco Airport, is less than 25 miles from campus.
I hope that you will find our fans as hospitable as the Blue Devil fans I met last year when Stanford football played at Duke.
