College Career
Pritchard received his first start at Stanford on October 6, 2007 in a game against top-ranked USC, after starter T. C. Ostrander suffered a seizure the week before the game. Though Stanford was a 41-point underdog, Pritchard led Stanford to an improbable 24-23 victory and earned the starting job.
Pritchard was replaced as the starting quarterback by redshirt freshman Andrew Luck during the 2009 season. After Luck injured a finger on his throwing hand and had surgery prior to the 2009 Sun Bowl, Pritchard started for the Cardinal. He went 8 for 19 for 118 yards and two interceptions in the 31-27 loss to Oklahoma.

Famous quotes related to college career:
“In looking back over the college careers of those who for various reasons have been prominent in undergraduate life ... one cannot help noticing that these men have nearly always shown from the start an interest in the lives of their fellow students. A large acquaintance means that many persons are dependent on a man and conversely that he himself is dependent on many. Success necessarily means larger responsibilities, and responsibilities mean many friends.”
—Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
