Analyzing past games reveals that the Cardinal have been on an impressive run. In their last home game against UC Davis Aggies, they dominated with a resounding 92-52 victory. Their offensive prowess was on full display as they shot an exceptional 58 percent from the field and an outstanding 88 percent from the free-throw line. They also showcased their defensive capabilities with nine steals and two blocks while maintaining discipline by committing only ten personal fouls.


Another home game saw them outplay Portland Pilots with an 81-51 scoreline. The Cardinal continued their trend of strong defense with five blocks and seven steals while shooting at a solid 42 percent from the field. Their rebounding was particularly noteworthy as they grabbed fifty boards, including thirteen offensive rebounds which contributed significantly to second-chance points.


However, it wasn't all smooth sailing for Stanford; in an away game against Gonzaga Bulldogs, despite scoring efficiently at 57 percent from the field and making nine three-pointers at a commendable rate of 45 percent, they fell short in a high-scoring affair that ended in a tight loss of 78-96.


Maples Pavilion has proven to be a fortress for Stanford this season; their robust offense coupled with disciplined defense makes them formidable opponents on home turf. As they face off against Oregon Ducks next week, fans can expect Stanford to leverage their home advantage fully.


The anticipation is building for what promises to be another exciting chapter in this season's campaign. Fans can catch all the action live on January 20th at Maples Pavilion or tune into local broadcasts for coverage of this compelling matchup between two competitive teams.
