Stanford struggled to find consistency last season, and things aren’t likely to get better in 2024. The Cardinal are moving to the ACC and have a tough slate of non-conference games before that, including TCU visiting in Week 1. The Horned Frogs have reloaded on talent, and both teams love to run up points on the scoreboard. However, Stanford have serious holes on the defensive side of the ball that TCU should be able to exploit. Prediction: This one is a tough call, but I’m taking TCU to win and beat Stanford bu 10 points or more.
