The four touchdowns tied a single-game school record, and this is a team which had ball carriers like Toby Gerhart, Bryce Love, Christian McCaffrey, Stepfan Taylor, Tommy Vardell, etc. The last Stanford back to run for four scores in a game was CMC in 2015 against UCLA.

Busy in trip to Notre Dame Ford compiled 13 carries for 48 yards and caught their only target for one yard during Saturday's 58-7 loss against Notre Dame.

Impact Ford had 13 of the team's 21 rushing attempts, and he did a decent job despite the fact the game was out of hand rather quickly. His 3.7 yards per rushing attempt were his most since he went for 6.9 yards per attempt at Duke on Sept. 19. He should enjoy a strong performance against Elon of the FCS on Saturday.

OCTOBER 12 • ROTOWIRE

Parked mostly in garage at Wake Ford tallied 16 rushes for 45 yards and reeled in all three targets for 18 yards during Saturday's 57-3 defeat to Wake Forest.

Impact Ford had a tough time hitting on all cylinders against a hungry Demon Deacons defense, which limited him to 2.8 yards per rushing attempt. His backfield mate, Sedrick Irvin, managed just six totes for 10 yards, or 1.7 yards per attempt, so it was tough sledding all around. It won't get any easier, as Ford and the Cardinal travel to Notre Dame next week.

Finds end zone vs. Georgia Tech Ford logged 19 carries for 55 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 34-27 win against Georgia Tech.

Impact Ford struggled a bit with 2.9 yards per carry, but his backfield mate, Sedrick Irvin, averaged just 3.0 yards per tote. The Cardinal struggled on the ground, and it had most of its success through the air. Ford and the run game will try to bounce back at Wake Forest next Saturday.

Totals 110 scrimmage yards Ford had 11 rushes for 76 yards during Saturday's 35-7 loss to Duke.

Impact Ford was easily the most explosive player for Stanford in an otherwise moribund game for the offense. He averaged 6.9 yards per rushing attempt, while the Cardinal managed just 3.3 yards per carry overall. As the game got away from Stanford, it abandoned the run, though, and the team got away from the only thing actually working.

Impact Ford galloped for 99 yards and three rushing touchdowns in the Week 0 victory over Hawaii, but he was able to average just 2.5 yards per carry against a top-tier defense against the national runner-up from a season ago. Ford and the Stanford offense will look to rebound in a cross-country road trip Sept. 19 at Duke in another conference tilt.

Scores three rushing touchdowns in win Ford had 25 rushes for 99 yards and three touchdowns during Saturday's 37-27 victory over Hawaii.

Impact Ford was the workhorse for new head coach Tavita Pritchard, who used a balanced attack to take down the Warriors in their trip to the mainland. Ford also had a lone 1-yard reception, helping him to 100 total yards from scrimmage, which might have helped some fantasy managers. He'll look to keep up the scoring ways next Friday when the Miami Hurricanes come calling.

Impact Ford missed the final game of Stanford's season last fall, and two other games throughout the campaign as well.

Impact Ford saw 30 touches for the first time this season, and hit the 150 rushing-yard threshold for the second time in nine games. The sophomore running back has been held back by some poor offensive performances by the Cardinal, but he's gotten back on track since Stanford turned to quarterback Elijah Brown. In the two games Brown has started, Ford has rushed 46 times for 218 yards and caught three passes for 42 yards.

Impact Ford, who missed the last two games due to a leg injury, is now off the injury report and will be available for Saturday's cross-country contest. Prior to his injury he rushed 99 times for 425 yards and three touchdowns. He will likely lead the Cardinal backfield now that he's healthy.

Won't play Saturday Ford (leg) is out for Saturday's game against Pitt.

Impact Ford will miss a second straight game after injuring his leg against Florida State on Oct. 18. The Cardinal will be without Ford and Tuna Altahir (undisclosed), leaving Cole Tabb as the bell cow back until more guys get healthy.

OCTOBER 31, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Week 10 Ford (leg) is questionable for Saturday's game against Pitt.

Impact Ford's status is in question after he was unable to go last Saturday following an injury in Week 8. His status is worth monitoring heading into Saturday's contest. Both Ford and Cole Tabb have run the ball well this season and likely would see a split in carries if both are active.

Out Saturday Ford (undisclosed) is out for Saturday's game at Miami, per the ACC availability report.

Impact Ford, who was injured in last Saturday's win over Florida State, will miss Week 9 due to that same injury. It's currently unclear what he is dealing with, but it's clearly serious enough to cost him a game. He has rushed 99 times for 425 yards and three touchdowns so far this season, so needless to say his contributions will be missed. With Tuna Altahir (undisclosed) also out, Cole Tabb is set to lead the Cardinal backfield Saturday.

Ford turned eight carries into 25 yards and didn't score before exiting. Cole Tabb, in relief of Ford, handled 28 carries. Stanford's next game comes Saturday, Oct. 25 at Miami.
