The Bill Walsh Legacy Game is the name given to the San Jose State–Stanford football rivalry.[2][3] It is a college football rivalry between the San Jose State Spartans football team of San José State University and the Stanford Cardinal football team of Stanford University. The two teams have played each other 67 times since 1900. The rivalry is currently on hiatus due to non-conference scheduling conflicts, with the next game due to be played in 2024. Stanford leads the series 52–14–1.
