Freshman quarterback Micah Ford sealed the win with a crucial 2-yard touchdown run with just 1:41 remaining on the clock. Prior to Ford's final touchdown, Davis Warren engineered the game-winning drive, showcasing his debut performance for the Cardinal. Warren completed 22 out of 34 passes, with no turnovers, and set a career-high in passing yards. He threw a 6-yard touchdown pass to Atticus Joseph and contributed to the setup of Ford's two touchdown runs by connecting on a 57-yarder to JonAnthony Hall and a 48-yard deep strike to Zion Robinson. The victory marked Stanford's first under new coach Tavita Pritchard, who led the team to a 37-27 triumph, preventing another loss to Hawaii in the season opener.",
