Elway was hired the previous December from nearby San Jose State, where he went 35–20–1 (.634) in five seasons. His Spartans had defeated Stanford the previous three years, the first two while his son John Elway was the Cardinal quarterback. Now on the other side, Coach Elway won the South Bay matchup again this season, as Stanford rallied to win by a point to snap the streak.
