Stanford’s defense made some nice plays, including on Hawaii’s first offensive play, when Patterson strip-sacked Alejado, with Wilfredo Aybar recovering the loose ball in the end zone, which gave Stanford a 10-0 lead after the extra point.

Stanford started its season under interim head coach Frank Reich by falling to the Rainbow Warriors 23-20 in Hawaii to start a 2025 season playing with a record number of transfers.
