Stanford Football -- Media's Short Memory!


I'm continually shocked with the media's preoccupation with the quality of Stanford Football -- and they standard they've set.  They've had four great seasons -- in a row.  That is it!

  • 2012:  12 - 2
  • 2011:  11 - 2
  • 2010:  12 - 1
  • 2009:    8 - 5
  • 2008:    5 - 7
  • 2007:    4 - 8
  • 2006:    1 - 11
  • 2005:    5 - 6
  • 2004:    4 - 7
  • 2003:    4 - 7
  • 2002:    2 - 9
  • 2001:    9 - 3
  • 2000:    5 - 6
  • 1999:    8 - 4
  • 1998:    3 - 8
