Here’s how you can watch Saturday evening’s Washington State vs Stanford game from Stanford Stadium online.

Coming off one of their toughest losses in the David Shaw era, or in the past decade, for that matter, the Stanford Cardinal are hoping to move forward. Losing 44-6 to a fellow Pac-12 power wasn’t what this team had in mind, but there’s still plenty of time to move past the defeat and put together a playoff run.

Christian McCaffrey was held without a touchdown on the road last week. Why is that a big deal? Well, he has yet to score a touchdown in a true Pac-12 road game throughout his entire career, which is incredibly hard to believe. He has, however, accounted for 634 total yards from scrimmage and three touchdowns this year.

Ryan Burns has taken over as the team’s starting quarterback for the departed Kevin Hogan and he’s managing the game just like his predecessor. In fact, he has passed for just 546 yards and four touchdowns in four games.

On the other side of the field, the Washington State Cougars, led by elite passer Luke Falk, have begun the year 2-2. While that may not seem very impressive, the Cougars have come back from a 0-2 record, losing to Eastern Washington and Boise State, to win two straight against Idaho and Oregon.

Falk, in his third year as the starting quarterback, passed for over 4,500 yards last season and the expectations are very high for 2016. So far, he has accounted for 1,495 yards and 12 touchdowns with two picks and a 73 percent completion rate. This aerial attack should have the Cardinal worried.

While three receivers have already eclipsed the 200-yard mark this season, two running backs have also done so. The strong pass game might open up the run against Stanford as James Williams and Jamal Morrow might take advantage.
