The team is compiling 352.8 yards per game through the air, and it’s scoring 40.7 points per game as a result.<\/p>\n That number is good enough for ninth in the country at this point in the process.<\/p>\n Defensively, this team has struggled. The Golden Bears are giving up 39.7 points per game.<\/p>\n That number is 122nd in the nation, which is a problem even against a struggling offense like the Stanford Cardinal.<\/p>\n [dfads params=’groups=63739&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]<\/p>\n The Golden Bears have a tendency to gain points via the passing game, but Stanford is just as effective at stopping that approach as it is at stopping opponents from gaining yards and points.<\/p>\n This one should be in Stanford’s favor all the way.<\/p>\n Look for this to be a relatively low-scoring game, but with the Cardinal posting a bit more productively than they are used to.<\/p>\n For that reason, Stanford should cover the spread in a straight up win — as well as \u00a0a win ATS.<\/p>\n [dfads params=’groups=63706&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Week 13:\u00a0Cardinal vs Golden Bears Week 13 college betting action sees the Stanford Cardinal vs. the California Golden Bears.\u00a0Cappers Picks provides free college football handicapping tips all season long.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":986,"featured_media":88669,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[1688,39215,1565,324,3202,2924,39218,4831],"class_list":["post-88666","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-ncaa-football","tag-california-golden-bears","tag-cardinal-vs-golden-bears","tag-college-football-handicapping","tag-college-football-odds","tag-ncaa-football-handicapping","tag-stanford-cardinal","tag-stanford-cardinal-vs-california-golden-bears","tag-week-13-odds"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/88666","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/986"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=88666"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/88666\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":88727,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/88666\/revisions\/88727"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/88669"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=88666"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=88666"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=88666"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}\n
