STANFORD, Calif. - Stanford Football Weekly and host Kevin Danna talked Tuesday with Bradford M. Freeman Director of Football and head coach David Shaw about the Cardinal's 21-14 victory over USC in the nationally acclaimed Pac-12 opener.

Shaw discussed the critical plays of the game, the defensive success versus the Trojans, the elevated play of senior quarterback Josh Nunes, the team's needs for improvement during this bye week, where senior running back Stepfan Taylor can play better still, and more.

No. 9/11 Stanford (3-0, 1-0) plays next on the road at the University of Washington in a Thursday night ESPN national broadcast on Sept. 27 (6 p.m. PT).
