I know USC will be playing with their backup QB, but it sounds like Costello also may not play for Stanford. He took a hit to the head on Saturday and left the game. Also, their only returning lineman from last season is doubtful. Stanford had only 3 returning offensive starters and 2 likely will not play. Their offense could be in trouble. On the other side, their defense looked solid last week.
Their OL is good enough, even with injuries, to run on SC. Fresno did pretty well against that DL, Stanford could do even better, although they don’t seem to have a feature RB. SC’s backup QB could be in for a rough night. Not sure how great Stanford’s DB’s are, but they always seem to have talent.
