After reading an article about the television ratings for Big 12 and PAC 12 teams (and the value of the Notre Dame/Stanford series), I took a look at the Cardinal’s future football non-conference schedules. That review raised some questions…
Why did Stanford and/or Notre Dame decide to end the series after 2024?
What is Stanford’s long term plan for scheduling out of conference opponents? (I noticed that San Jose State and Hawaii were the only games listed so far in 2025 and 2026. That is a rather weak duo)
Would Stanford consider replacing Notre Dame with USC as an annual out of conference opponent? The timing would certainly be right.
Note: All questions asked in the context of the upheaval conferences are currently experiencing.
Thoughts/comments???
