Hawai'i travels to Stanford Stadium on Saturday, August 29th at 7:00 PM EDT to open the 2025 college football season in a Week 0 showdown that gives both programs an early chance to set the tone.
For the Rainbow Warriors, the cross-Pacific trip to The Farm is an opportunity to steal a statement win before the rest of the country even wakes up. For Stanford, the home opener under the lights is a chance to defend their turf and build momentum in front of a Cardinal faithful hungry for September football.
There's something pure about Week 0 — two teams with clean slates, no tape to overanalyze, no narrative yet written. Just a football game on a Saturday night with everything still ahead. Tune in and be first to the season.
