Stanford Cardinalについて
The Stanford Cardinal football program represents Leland Stanford Junior University in college football at the NCAA Division I FBS level and is a member of the Atlantic Coast Conference. The program was previously in the Pac-12 Conference. The team is known as the Cardinal, adopted prior to the 1982 season; the name represents the color – Cardinal, a deep shade of red – rather than the similarly-named bird (Cardinalis cardinalis), which is not native to the university's region.
Stanford's sports teams were known as the "Cardinal" for its first two decades of athletic competition, then more commonly as the "Cardinals" until 1930. The name was changed to the "Indians" from 1930 to January 1972, and back to the "Cardinals" from 1972 through 1981. A student vote in December 1975 to change the nickname to "Robber Barons" was not approved by administrators.
