Stanford running back Christian McCaffrey (5) hops over the line to get the Cardinal a first down against Arizona in the second quarter of their Pac-12 game at Arizona Stadium, Saturday, Oct. 29, 2016, Tucson, Ariz. Kelly Presnell / Arizona Daily Star

Last week: Defeated Arizona 34-10

This week: vs. Oregon State (Saturday, 12:30 p.m., Fox Sports 1)

Comment: The last of the decent teams. They won’t throw you a parade if your only Pac-12 victory in your last four chances is against Arizona. But if you have a healthy Christian McCaffrey and an above-average defense, you’ve got a shot. The most important thing for Stanford the rest of the way is the development of QB Keller Chryst. He was underwhelming against the Wildcats on Saturday night and extremely lucky that Dane Cruikshank fumbled after intercepting Chryst’s ill-advised pass in the second quarter.
