Stanford Cardinal podcast Daniel Dullum:

#1 The UNC Tar Heels (4-5) came up with a 20-15 win over the Stanford Cardinal (3-7) Saturday. The loss for the Cardinal was their third loss in row. This one coming at Chapel Hill in North Carolina.

#2 Stanford Cardinal quarterback Elijah Brown making his first start of the season since taking over for benched quarterback Ben Gulbranson threw 27-39, 284 yards, and one touchdown.

#3 Brown couldn’t get any offense going in the first three quarters where the Cardinal were shutout in the first and third quarters of the game.

#4 In the fourth quarter with the Tar Heels ahead 10-3 the offense opened up a little bit as Stanford scored 12 points but the difference was North Carolina was able to counter with ten points in the fourth quarter to come away with the five point win.

#5 Next up for Stanford it’s the Big Game at Stanford Stadium on Sat Nov 22 against the Cal Bears. Cal played a very tight game against the Louisville Cardinals on Saturday that went into overtime. This could be another opponent that could give the Cardinal fits.
