The Stanford Cardinal sports teams will have a bit of a lighter week schedule-wise this week, given that Thanksgiving is on Thursday, but it also includes the final game of the college football season against San Jose State as the team looks to move past a three-win season for the first time since 2020.

Here is the full slate of games on the Cardinal calendar.

Stanford football will wrap up its season on the road in San Jose, and will be looking for one final win in 2024 that will not only have the team leave on a high note, but show that there have been some improvements made this season in the team's second year under Troy Taylor.

Kickoff will be on Friday at 1 p.m. and will air on CBS.

Stanford women's basketball will take the court yet again at Maples, this time facing UC San Diego (1-7). This game will take place at 2 p.m. and will air on the ACC Network

Occurring at the same time as the women's basketball game will be a women's soccer match against Notre Dame, also at Stanford. This is a quarterfinal matchup, after the Cardinal defeated No. 5 Arkansas on penalty kicks (4-2) on Sunday night. The winner of this contest will go on to compete in the semifinals on December 6, and the winner of those games will play for the Women's College Cup on December 9.
