Stanford football has a lot to look forward to in the month of November. What’s in store for the Cardinal in the final month of the regular season?

Perhaps one of the hottest teams in college football, the Stanford Cardinal have overcome a sluggish start to the 2017 season and are now a dark horse in the College Football Playoff (CFP) discussion.

Dropping two early season road games to USC and San Diego State, the Cardinal have now won five straight games, some of which have come in dominant fashion — while others have been grind-it-out games that have come down to the wire, proving the Cardinal have what it takes to win in high-pressure situations.

Of the four games remaining on Stanford’s schedule, three are against ranked opponents (Washington State, Washington, Notre Dame), proving prime opportunities to move up in the rankings and make a splash in the Pac 12 standings.

Due to this tough schedule, there is a lot that can happen from now until the end of the year as the Cardinal have a major say in how the rest of the season plays out on both a national and Pac 12 level.

As the Cardinal prepare to face a gauntlet of a remaining regular season, here are five bold predictions surrounding the team as they fight on through the month of November.
