2022 Stanford Cardinal Betting Odds, Picks & Predictions

2022 STANFORD CARDINAL BETTING ODDS, PREDICTIONS, PREVIEW

After starting the 2021 season 3-2 SU, Stanford lost seven straight to finish 3-9 SU on the season. Head Coach David Shaw (93-45) will return for his 12th season with the Cardinals. Shaw had 82 wins throughout his first eight seasons but has struggled over the last four years with a combined 11 wins. An all-around improvement will be needed to cover their win total of 4.5 as not a whole lot went right for the Cardinals in 2021.  

The Cardinal’s offense was one of the worst in the country last season, averaging 302 total yards and 20 points per game. The Cardinals lost their top two running backs to the transfer portal which leaves the job to EJ Smith (26 carries, 133 YDS, 1 TD). Four starters return from the offensive line, so at least the experience is there. Quarterback Tanner McKee (2,327 YDS, 15 TD, 7 INT) will return to lead the offense. McKee has solid size and potential but needs more time from his offensive line to work. The defense was terrible last season and will start over after the departure of numerous seniors and transfers.  

With a win total of 4.5 games, Stanford has their work cut out for them with their upcoming schedule. After opening the season at home against Colgate nothing will come easy for the Cardinals. Road games against Washinton, Oregon, Notre Dame, and Utah are brutal to say the least. USC and Arizona State are tough no matter where it is played and to finish the season against BYU is the cherry on top. With no Arizona or Colorado on their schedule, I do not think the Cardinals cover the win total. Best bet on the board here is taking the under 4.5 (-140) win total.  g

Best Bet: Under 4.5 (-140)

STANFORD CARDINAL ODDS TO WIN PAC-12 CHAMPIONSHIP

+9000

The last time Stanford won the Pac-12 Championship was in 2015 when Christian McCaffrey was running the ball for the Cardinals. Unfortunately, they do not have that kind of play maker on their team this year to make a run at it. Their schedule is too tough and too many problems on both sides of the ball to see this kind of success.  

STANFORD CARDINAL ODDS TO WIN NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP

+40000

Stanford has not won a title since 1940. The drought shall continue until this program can get back on track. The Cardinals will be lucky to see a winning season let alone a National Title in the 2022 season.  

STANFORD CARDINAL 2022 HEISMAN CONTENDERS & ODDS

Tanner Mckee (QB) +12500

At 6-5 220 pounds, McKee has good size and play making ability, but he needs more time from his offensive line. He finished last season with 2,327 yards, 15 TD, and 7 INT, so the potential is there but I do not think the talent around him is. Some solid juice here if you expect a breakout season from McKee, but I do not expect Heisman like numbers from him this season.
