Week 3 of the college football season sees a number of top teams face tough challenges on the road, and one of those teams in Stanford, who could be in for a real test against Nick Foles and Arizona.
Andrew Luck and the Cardinal have battered their first two opponents, but that might not be the case against the Wildcats, who boast one of the nation’s best quarterbacks and will be itching to show that they’re much better than last week’s 37-14 loss at Oklahoma State.
Will Stanford remain unbeaten, or will they fall in Tucson? Below is my prediction for that matchup, along with predictions for the rest of this weekend’s Pac-12 action.
