STANFORD, Calif. -- Kevin Hogan threw for a career-high 341 yards and three touchdowns as Stanford bounced back from a disappointing loss in its season opener to beat Central Florida 31-7 on Saturday night.
Hogan got Stanford into the end zone for the first time this season on a 53-yard flea-flicker to Michael Rector in the second quarter. Hogan added a 7-yard touchdown pass to Christian McCaffrey and a 93-yarder to Bryce Love in the second half as the Cardinal (1-1) avoided their first 0-2 start since 2006.
The Knights (0-2) struggled to generate any sort of offense with starting quarterback Justin Holman leaving early with an injury. Freshman Bo Schneider came in and went 7 for 19 for 46 yards with an interception.
