On the Stanford Cardinal podcast with Michael R:

#1 Going back to Dec 3rd when the Cardinal played their last game, the Cardinal (4-4, 0-0 Pac-12) attacked their guest the San Diego Toreros (6-3, 0-0 WCC), and chased them all around the Farm in a health 88-64 win to hit the .500 mark.

#2 Senior forward Brandon Angel led the way for Stanford, with 25 points and 8 rebounds. He also got the party started with a three-pointer, demarking the first points of the game. The 3-0 lead was a precursor for the rest of the battle, as the Cardinal were in front from that point on to the final whistle.

#3 Michael, the Cardinal dominated the Toreros in both halves in the first 43-27 and 45-37. Talk about how Stanford really opened up on the offense.

#4 For the Toreros they just couldn’t get anything going on offense with leading scorers Deuce Turner 12 points followed by Drago Lungu and Deven Dahlke both with 11 points. But it just wasn’t enough for San Diego just to stay in the game.

#5 Stanford will next be in action at Maples Sunday, December 17, 2 PM PDT, hosting the Idaho Vandals. Michael the Vandals have won three straight and are 7-4. The Cardinal have lost three of their last four games and are 4-4. The Cardinal have the home floor. How do you see this match considering neither team has seen each other this season.

On the Stanford Cardinal podcast with Michael Roberson:

#1 How tough is it that the Stanford Cardinal (2-6) have their last two road games against the Washington State Cougars (4-4) tonight and Oregon State next week both on the road.

#2 These will be the last two Pac 12 road games that Stanford will have as the break of up of the Pac 12 starts next season. Stanford head coach Troy Taylor said it’s painful and disappointing that it’s ending this way.

#3 The Cougars were 4-0 in September but have cooled off immensely having lost four straight games all in the month of October.

#4 The Cougars have won the last six games against the Stanford. Last season the Cougars clobbered the Cardinal 52-14 at Stanford Stadium. The weather forecast for tonight in Pullman calls for rain.

#5 Michael, with the field being wet and the ball being wet as well how do you see the Cardinal quarterback Anthony Daniels getting a good grip on the ball for quick passes.

On the Stanford Cardinal podcast with Michael Roberson:

#1 Michael, the Stanford Cardinal (1-4) who are on a four game losing streak are looking to get back in the win column and the Colorado Buffaloes might be they’re best chance as the Buffaloes have lost their last two games USC and Oregon.

#2 The Cardinal lost their last game to the Oregon Ducks at Stanford 42-6 at Stanford Stadium on Saturday. The Stanford defense has to be a concern they allowed the flood gates to open as the Ducks 14 points in the second quarter and 21 in the third quarter.

#3 The story was all Bo Nix the Ducks quarterback as the Cardinal pass rush couldn’t lay a glove on him and Nix had time to throw against the Cardinal.

#4 Nix was 27-32 for 290 yards and four touchdowns. The Ducks rally was so upbeat rather than run up the score on Stanford in the fourth quarter the Ducks went to back up quarterback Ty Thompson who threw for one pass for eight yards.

#5 The Cardinals face the Buffaloes Fri Oct 13th in Colorado for a rare Friday night game. Both teams are coming in hungry as the Cardinal lost their last four and the Buffaloes their last two. Colorado have home field how do you see this match up Friday night?

On the Stanford Cardinal WBB podcast with Michael:

#1 The Stanford Cardinal WBB (24-3) are coming off a two game road sweep over the Arizona Wildcats (19-6) on Thursday and the Arizona State Sun Devils (7-16) on Sunday and both were convincing wins.

#2 The Cardinal occupied the #6 spot on the AP Poll but moved up to #3 after the last two road wins. They did at one time occupy #2 on the poll.

#3 South Carolina is #1 in the poll and has held that spot for 37 straight weeks tying UConn’s record for third place for the longest #1 spot held in the AP Poll list.

#4 The Cardinal have not lost often but have lost to USC and Washington in their last two defeats in Pac 12 play. That really speaks to the success of head coach Tara VanDerveer and the job she’s done with this team this season.

#5 Michael speaking of coach VanDerveer, she and the Cardinal get another run against the USC Trojans at Maple Pavilion this Friday night. The Cardinal badly want this game after losing to the Trojans in Los Angeles their last meeting.

#2 Dalayah Daniels capitalized on Stanford’s foul trouble scoring two free throws with just eight seconds left in the game as the Huskies came away with a five point win and were the third team in NCAA play to defeat the Cardinal this season.

#3 Stanford head coach Tara Vanderveer pretty much summed up the contest in her comments to the media afterwards:  “We didn’t play well offensively, we didn’t play well defensively, and we didn’t rebound. So that’s pretty hard to win games when you’re really not getting it done in any of those three things.”

#4 After carrying a five game win streak the Stanford Cardinal men’s team (10-14) headed to Colorado last Sunday to have their streak broken by the Buffaloes (15-11) 84-62. The Buffaloes Tristan de Silva led with 25 points and it was Colorado’s fourth win in their last ten games.

#5 The Cardinal men host the Arizona State University Sun Devils (16-8) this Thursday night at Maples Pavilion the Sun Devils have lost five of their last six games and hope having home floor Thursday night will give them some advantage the tip off is 7:00pm.

On the Cardinal podcast with Michael:

#1 Michael in Friday’s game at Haas Pavilion in Berkeley was this a matter of the Cal Bears were prepared and had studied film on the Stanford Cardinal in the Cardinal 92-70 loss or the Cardinal took the Bears for granted.

#2 In talking with coach Jerod Haase after the game was his demeanor more of disappointment or he looked at it as turn the page and get ready for the next game?

#3 Michael Jones led Stanford with 14 points he’s been on of the bright spots in the Cardinal line up as one of the top scorers.

#4 The Cardinal in second half action just had a tough time shutting down the Bears who set a school record with 16 three point shots.
