On the Stanford Cardinal football podcast with Jerry Feitelberg:

#1 Lots to work on for Stanford Cardinal head coach David Shaw and the Cardinal as they come off last Thursday’s loss to the UCLA Bruins at home 34-16.

#2 Lots to talk about for Shaw and the Cardinal and quarterback David West, who threw against the Bruins as the Cardinal third string quarterback, going 15-32 for 143 yards and no touchdowns. West and the offense will have a huge order in improving the offense in Arizona at Stanford Stadium this Saturday.

#3 A total of 16 Cardinal have made their first career starts which included West, with a great percentage of the players being that young and inexperienced the task of getting each of them ready. Saturday has proved challenging, but the Cardinal have won three games this season proving that once in gear Shaw can get his younger players ready.

#4 The Bruins — in the first quarter — got two touchdowns and spread out the rest of their scoring throughout the game for the 18-point win. Stopping the run early will probably be one of Stanford’s biggest goals this Saturday against Arizona.

#5 The Wildcats are coming to Stanford with a two-game losing streak and got crushed in their last two games by Washington and USC. Are the Wildcats a down team are a mad animal backed in a corner coming in this Saturday?

Captain Jack leads Sabres past Sharks 4-3

By Pearl Allison Lo

The Buffalo Sabres’ Jack Eichel led his team accordingly with two goals and four points in another 4-3 win over the San Jose Sharks in overtime Tuesday. 

Casey Mittelstadt passed from one end to Rasmus Ristolainen in the other as the Sharks were changing, leaving Brent Burns outnumbered. It ended up being a rebound of a rebound as Eichel picked up Ristolainen’s shot, but then had to find the puck after he tried himself. The goal was the lone shot in overtime at 3:13 and was questioned after if the net came off and there was goaltender interference.  

Sharks captain Logan Couture on what happened earlier, 

The Sabres remained perfect at home as the Sharks were able to take a point in the first of a five-game road trip, thanks to San Jose goalie Martin Jones with saves in the beginning versus Jeff Skinner and near the end stopping Eichel for example. 

For the Sharks, Dylan Gambrell, Marc-Edouard Vlasic and Erik Karlsson punched in their first goals of the season, Gambrell’s his first in the NHL. 

It was a rocky start for San Jose though, with defensive miscues and Jones needing to be solid. 

After racking up their goals in the final period last game, the Sharks built a 2-0 lead in the first. 

Gambrell tipped Karlsson’s shot from the point at 5:46. It was Karlsson’s seventh assist and fifth straight game with one. 

Patrick Marleau, with eyes up, found his person in Vlasic and made a perfect pass with Vlasic finishing the goal at 15:23. 

However, Buffalo scored three straight goals, including two in 76 seconds if you take out second intermission. 

Eichel broke through first with a power play goal 7:21 of the second. It broke up a 15-15 penalty kill by San Jose before then. Rasmus Dahlin added his ninth assist.  

With 31 seconds left in the second period, the Sabres evened up the match to two goals apiece. Sam Reinhart, standing in front of Jones and facing Ristolainen, tipped Ristolainen’s shot from the right faceoff circle. 

Skinner then gave Buffalo their first lead 45 seconds into the last period of regulation with his sixth goal of the year. 

Undaunted, San Jose, who outshot the Sabres 13-4 in the third, made it 3-3 at 11:27. Marleau tallied another apple, passing to Kevin Labanc, who saw Karlsson. 

Up Next: The Sharks went 0-for-2 on the power play. San Jose now heads to the home of Vlasic, Montreal, for a 4 pm game Thursday.  

Headline Sports podcast with Barbara Mason: 49ers get just enough done to beat Washington; Raiders will have to turn the page after getting crushed by the Pack; plus more

On Headline Sports with Barbara:

#1 The San Francisco 49ers kept their perfect record in tact shutting out Washington on Sunday 9-0. It was, messy, muddy, sloppy, and kicker Robby Gould did all the heavy lifting kicking three field goals for all the scoring.

#2 The Green Bay Packers’ Aaron Rogers threw all day on Sunday against the visiting Oakland Raiders resulting in a 42-24 laugher for the Pack. The Packers ran through the Raiders defense like butter as Rogers passed for five touchdowns.

#3 The 2019 World Series is underway tonight at Minute Maid Field in Houston between the Washington Nationals and the Houston Astros. Both teams come into the series with potent pitching staffs, which proved their success in getting to the World Series.

#4 The Cal Bears (4-3) suffered their third loss dropping to 4-3 in a game they were supposed to win against Oregon State (3-4) 21-17 in Berkeley. The Bears couldn’t get any offense going in the first half.

#5 Quarterback problems live at Stanford University as the Cardinal (3-4) are now on their third quarterback. K.J. Costell and David Mills are both out with injuries and third string quarterback Jack West worked under center last Thursday night, but couldn’t get enough yards, rushing or passing done in the 34-16 loss to the UCLA Bruins (2-5).

First team trip to New York
The Army game will be the first time a San Jose State football team is playing a game in the state of New York and the tenth contest in the Eastern Time Zone. The Spartans’ last game in the Eastern Time Zone was their AutoNation Cure Bowl victory over Georgia State, 27-16, on December 19, 2015.

Hawaiian optics
San Jose State head coach Brent Brennan and Army head coach Jeff Moncken started their college coaching careers as a graduate assistant at the University of Hawaii. Brennan was there for the 1998 season when Fred von Appen was in his third season as the Rainbow Warriors’ head coach. Moncken was a graduate assistant in 1989 when Bob Wagner was in his third season as head coach at Hawaii.

#40 in 2018
In 2018, San Jose State became the 40th school in college football to play each of the three service academies that compete for the Commander-in-Chief’s Trophy.

The 2019 season is the first time in school history the Spartans are playing two service academies, Air Force and Army West Point, in the same season.

Bid to become #20
Through the 2018 season, 19 schools have wins over Army, Navy and Air Force. San Jose State with wins over Air Force in 1997 and Navy in 2011 and 2012 can join the group by defeating Army on October 26.

Possible second road win in 2019
San Jose State has its second opportunity this season for a second road win in the same season. The Spartans picked up their first 2019 road victory at Arkansas, 31-24, on September 21.

The 2015 season was the last time San Jose State won two road games in the same season defeating Mountain West opponents UNLV, 33-27 in overtime in Las Vegas, and Hawaii, 42-23, in Honolulu.

The last time San Jose State won two non-conference road games was in back-to-back weeks in 2012 with victories at San Diego State, 38-34, and Navy, 12-0.

Tie for #2 nationally in turnover margin
For the third consecutive week, San Jose State is in the top-three nationally in turnover margin. The Spartans were the national leader in turnover margin in games played through October 5 and October 12.

The Spartans have 13 interceptions, which leads the country, and five fumble recoveries.

San Jose State has lost the ball on four fumbles and three pass interceptions.

The next running back in 2019
After seven games, four Spartans have started a game at the running back position. The latest is freshman Kairee Robinson against San Diego State. Robinson’s modest rushing totals against San Diego State, 14 carries for 59 yards, are season bests by a Spartan running back this season.

Prior to Robinson receiving the starting call for the first time, senior DeJon Packer started four games; junior Tyler Nevens, one; and freshman Isaiah Holiness, one.

A 99-yard scoring drive
For the first time since 2011, San Jose State had a 99-yard touchdown drive in the recent San Diego State game with an 11-play, 99-yard touchdown drive capped by a Bailey Gaither 8-yard touchdown reception.

In the October 29, 2011 game at Louisiana Tech, San Jose State scored its final touchdown in a 38-28 loss on an 11-play, 99-yard drive that consumed 2:37 of game time. Quarterback Matt Faulkner connected on a 20-yard touchdown pass play to tight end Ryan Otten for the Spartan touchdown.

10 Spartans with a touchdown reception in 2019
Running back Kairee Robinson became the 10th San Jose State player this season with a touchdown catch, thanks to his 15-yard reception in the first quarter of the San Diego State game.

Of the 10 players with a touchdown catch, six are wide receivers, two are tight ends, and two are running backs.

The last time the Spartans had 10 players with a touchdown reception in the same season was in 2016.
