Notes, courtesy of the Sports Network: Stanford is riding an 11-game win streak dating back to last season. They've also been ranked in the top-10 for 10 straight weeks. This one guy named Andrew Luck is the Cardinal quarterback, and he's played pretty ok thus far. He's completed 57-of-85 passes for 786 yards and 8 TDs with only one interception. The Cardinal offense in averaging nearly 500 yards per game of total offense (481.3 to be exact). They are also 16 for 16 in the red zone this year. Pretty decent.
UCLA is 28th in the nation in rushing offense with 214 yards per game on the ground, and their offense has averaged 411.2 yards per game on offense. Against the run though, the Bruins are giving up 183.2 yards per game on the ground and 412.2 yards per game of total offense. They've given up 30.8 points a game so it may be a high-scoring affair.
