The Stanford–UCLA football rivalry is an American college football rivalry game between the Stanford Cardinal and UCLA Bruins.[1][2][3][4]

History

The West Coast in-state rivals have spent much of their respective athletics histories as members of the same conference; first the Pacific Coast Conference from 1925 to 1958 followed by the various predecessors of the modern day Pac-12 Conference from 1959 to 2023.[5][6] The teams met annually from 1946 to 2023 without interruption. The rivalry has seen its fair share of excitement throughout its history,[7] but reached its peak in the 21st century when both teams were consistently ranked in the top 25 and had numerous competitive games against each other.[2] With the collapse of the Pac-12 following the 2023 season, which resulted in Stanford leaving to join the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) and UCLA accepting an invitation to join the Big Ten Conference,[8][9][10][11] the annual series between the Cardinal and Bruins was put on hiatus. As of August 2025, there are no plans for the schools to meet again on the football field.
