Dawgman.com's Kim Grinolds spoke this week with Stanford 247's Jackson Moore, who updated us on what's going on at the Farm with the Stanford Cardinal and the transition from David Shaw to Troy Taylor. Washington fans will remember Taylor as Jake Browning's head coach at Folsom High School.

What were the preseason expectations for the Cardinal and have they matched what has taken place on the football field so far?

Kim and Jackson start on the offensive side of the ball, talking about the personnel UW fans will see Saturday afternoon, as well as the style of offense Taylor wants to run. And then they turn to the other side of the ball. Can the Cardinal defense contain Michael Penix Jr., Rome Odunze, Ja'Lynn Polk and Washington's offense? And if they can match up, who are the Stanford players that can help them get the job done?

And when it comes to penalties, Washington may have met their match with the Cardinal - as both average at least seven flags per game.
