Micah Ford is Stanford’s bruising, breakout RB with big-play punch
In the 2025 season, Micah Ford emerged as Stanford’s lead back with 643 rushing yards and 4 touchdowns on 145 carries, plus 119 receiving yards, and he added a career-high 157-yard, 1-TD game against Boston College[2][15]. He is a 6-foot, 220-pound sophomore who runs with power, has shown the ability to break tackles, and has been singled out for his physicality and upside as Stanford’s clear No. 1 back in 2026[2][15][14]. The fit? If you want a tough, downhill runner who can handle volume and still threaten as a pass catcher, Ford looks like a strong one.
