Stanford has scheduled games against Kansas State (Big 12), Vanderbilt (SEC) and Notre Dame (Independent) for its nonconference schedule. Games against the Wildcats and Commodores will be on the road, while the contest against the Fighting Irish will be at home.
To make Stanford’s schedule even more difficult, the team will open the season with three straight road games. The Cardinal will play Kansas State, USC and Vanderbilt as away games before coming home to play UCLA.
Stanford finished the 2020 season with a 4-2 record.
