Stanfords’ Tyler Gaffney runs with the ball San Jose State’s Travis Raciti in the third quarter at Stanford Stadium in Stanford, Calif., on Saturday, Sept. 7, 2013. The breakup of the Pac-12 Conference halted many of Stanford’s traditional rivalries, including the annual games against Southern Cal and UCLA.
The Spartans’ last victory against the Cardinal was also the last time these two met in San Jose. In 2006, San Jose State won a 35-34 classic as Yonus Davis rushed for 184 yards . “We’ve had conversations with a lot of institutions trying to shore up our schedule and that includes our friends in Berkeley,” Konya said. “Hopefully that might lead to a series between the two universities.”
SJSU’s radio play-by-play announcer Kevin Richardson, who played at Stanford from 1984-88 and went 4-1 in his time against SJSU, said the renewed rivalry reminds him of when it was a more regional sport with smaller conferences and local rivalries.
