New Delhi, Sept 27, 2009: Huskies vs Stanford Huskies football schedule. The Washington football team wraps up its September in Seattle this Saturday night at Husky Stadium when Stanford (2-2 overall, 1-1 in the Pac-10) visits Montlake for a 7:00 p.m. game. The Huskies (0-3 overall, 0-1 in the Pac-10) are coming off of a bye week after a brutal three-game stretch to open the season. The Dawgs opened with a loss at then-No. 21 Oregon before falling at home to No. 15 BYU and No. 3 Oklahoma. After this Saturday's game vs. the Cardinal, the Dawgs finally return to the road for a date at Arizona Oct. 4 in Tucson. Oregon State comes to Husky Stadium the following Saturday before another off week for the Dawgs.
Huskies vs. Cardinal History: Washington holds a relatively close 40-34-4 advantage in the series against Stanford, but has been the dominant team lately. After winning eight straight vs. Stanford from 1959 to 1966, the Huskies lost 10 in a row from 1967 to 1976. Since that 1976 loss, Washington has gone 21-4 against the Cardinal. One of those four losses was a big upset in 1982 when the No. 2 Huskies fell to the Cardinal, 43-31, in Palo Alto. The second UW loss during that stretch came at Stanford in 1994, when the Cardinal upset 12th-ranked Washington, 46-28. More recently, the Cardinal beat the Huskies, 27-13, at Palo Alto in 2004. After no game in 2005, Stanford won its second straight over the UW in a 20-3 victory in 2006 at Husky Stadium. Last season in Palo Alto, however, the Huskies rushed for a total of 388 yards in a 27-9 win over the Cardinal. Louis Rankin led the way with 255 yards on 36 carries. Over the last 10 seasons, the two old league rivals have not played one other four times (1998, 1999, 2002 and 2005). Washington and Stanford first played one another in 1893 in a game that marked the first major college opponent for UW. That game, played in West Seattle, resulted in a 40-0 Stanford victory. There wouldn't be another matchup between the two schools until 1920, when the Cardinal nipped Washington, 3-0, in the last UW home game played somewhere other than Husky Stadium. Three weeks after that game, the UW would open what would eventually come to be known as Husky Stadium. After a 0-0 tie in 1921, the Huskies' first victory in the series came in 1922, 12-8 at Palo Alto. Husky head coach Tyrone Willingham, who spent seven years as the head coach at Stanford, is 4-1 vs. the Cardinal. Three wins came as Notre Dame's head coach while his one loss was in 2007. Willingham and Stanford coach Jim Harbaugh first faced each other as head coaches in last season's game, meaning that Willingham is 1-0 in the head-to-head matchup.
Huskies vs. Bay Area Schools: Washington has a combined, all-time record of 99-72-8 vs. opponents from the San Francisco Bay Area. Washington is 47-37-4 against Cal, 40-34-4 vs. Stanford, 10-0 vs. San Jose State, 1-1 vs. St. Mary's and 1-0 vs. Santa Clara. The Huskies haven't played Santa Clara since 1935 and St. Mary's since 1947. Since 1977, UW is 49-8-0 vs. Bay Area teams: 20-4 vs. Cal, 21-4 vs. Stanford and 8-0 vs. San Jose State.
Television: The Washington-Stanford will air live on to a regional audience on FSN television with Kevin Calabro, former Seahawks fullback Mack Strong and Nicole Zaloumis providing the commentary. Additionally, "Huskies All-Access" airs Thursday evening on FSN. The program is an up-close look at each Husky game, with features, one-on-one interviews and sideline video.
Radio: The Washington ISP Sports Network, with its flagship station KJR 950-AM, will carry the live broadcast of every football game to three different states and British Columbia, Canada, on 21 different radio stations. Longtime play-by-play man Bob Rondeau and color analyst Chuck Nelson are joined by sideline reporter Elise Woodward. Many game broadcasts will also be carried on XM Satellite Radio on channel 194, 195 or 196 and can be heard over the internet via the Dawg Channel at gohuskies.com.
Washington-Stanford Ties: Clearly, the most obvious connection between the UW and Stanford coaching staffs and rosters is the fact that Husky head coach Tyrone Willingham spent seven seasons (1995-2001) as the Cardinal's head coach. He also had previously worked three years (1989-91) on the Stanford staff as running backs coach. Only one remaining Husky assistant coach who worked under Willingham at Stanford remains: offensive line coach Mike Denbrock. Stanford coach Jim Harbaugh hasn't ever spent time on the same team or staff as any Husky coach, but his time as Michigan quarterback did overlap with Willingham and assistant coach Charlie Baggett's tenures as assistant coaches at Michigan State, which is also Willingham and Baggett's alma mater. The only Stanford assistant who has ever worked with a current member of the UW staff is D.J. Durkin (defensive ends/special teams). He was a grad assistant at Notre Dame in 2003 and 2004, working on Willingham's staff. Additionally, two Cardinal assistants - Chris Dalman and David Shaw - played at Stanford during Willingham's tenure as running backs coach under Denny Green. Dalman was also on Jim Mora's coaching staff with the Atlanta Falcons along with Husky defensive coordinator Ed Donatell. Stanford co-defensive coordinator Ron Lynn and Husky offensive coordinator Tim Lappano were both on Dennis Erickson's San Francisco 49ers staff in 2004. There are three Washingtonians on the current Stanford roster: freshman OL David DeCastro (Bellevue), senior QB Tavita Pritchard (Tacoma/Clover Park) and junior WR Marcus Rance (Yakima/Davis). Washington's roster includes numerous Californians, but only nine from Northern California: Donald Butler (Sacramento), Allen Carroll (Oakland), Terrance Dailey (Vacaville), Mason Foster (Seaside), Willie Griffin (Oakland) and De'Shon Matthews (Sacramento). Only a few Huskies attended the same high school as any Cardinal players. DeCastro went to Bellevue High with Husky long snapper Brendan Lopez. UW sophomore DB Matt Mosley and Stanford OT Allen Smith and CB Blaise Johnson all graduated from Tempe's Corona del Sol, while Husky long snapper Danny Morovick and Stanford kicker David Green, tight end Konrad Reuland and wide receiver Warren Reuland all went to Mission Viejo High. Lastly, Stanford receiver Richard Sherman and Husky TB Brandon Johnson both went to L.A.'s Dominguez High while UW linebacker Kurt Mangum and Cardinal safety Harold Bernard and cornerback Quinn Evans were all classmates at Arizona's Chandler HS last year.
