STANFORD, Calif. -- There was a question whether Oregon's fast defense could go mano-a-mano with Stanford's physical offense.

Early returns: No.

Stanford's offensive line and running back Toby Gerhart are winning the early battle, and the Cardinal lead 17-7.

Gerhart has 13 carries for 61 yards in the first quarter with two TDs.

He's either running through big holes, or making his own holes.
