Andrew Luck is turning heads on the football field. Not as a player, but as a general manager. The former NFL star returned to his alma mater last year to take over Stanford’s front office. His astute knowledge of the game has brought new eyes to the program.

A Stanford cornerback was carted off the field in an ambulance during their game against SMU after an apparent neck injury.

Through five games, Stanford has shown plenty to provide excitement for the future, but they'll need to focus on these things to have more success this season

Former Stanford University football player Bradford M. Freeman made a historic, eight-figure donation to the Cardinal football program this week.

"With Brad's incredible gift, we are positioned to win on the field and build a bridge to a sustainable future for Stanford football," said Andrew Luck, the former Stanford and Colts star who took over as Stanford's general manager last year.

Stanford was a far peskier opponent this year than the team SMU faced in Palo Alto a year ago. While last year’s 40-10 score doesn’t look much different than this year’s final, Stanford kept it close at halftime and nearly made the game a one-score game in the fourth quarter.
