Cardinal trailed 35-33 in closing minutes of nine-point loss
STANFORD, CALIFORNIA – OCTOBER 28: Justin Lamson #8 of the Stanford Cardinal runs for a two yard touchdown against the Washington Huskies in the fourth quarter at Stanford Stadium on October 28, 2023 in Stanford, California. STANFORD – Stanford outgained No. 5 Washington and had a chance for a shocking go-ahead score in the closing minutes, but fell 42-33 Saturday to remain winless at Stanford Stadium.
Michael Penix Jr., who led the nation at 368 passing yards a game, completed 21 of 38 passes for 369 yards and four TDs. But he was matched by Stanford sophomore QB Ashton Daniels, who completed 31 of 50 passes for 367 yards and ran for another 85 yards on 18 carries, accounting for three total TDs. Washington then scored a touchdown on its opening possession after not scoring an offensive touchdown the previous week against one-win Arizona State.
After going 1-for-4 passing for 10 yards in the first quarter, Penix got in a rhythm in the second quarter. Rome Odunze outjumped Wright on a fade route for a 7-yard TD, and then Wright fell down in coverage, resulting in a 92-yard touchdown to Ja’Lynn Polk – the second-longest pass play in Washington history.
