I agree that the Flutie Effect does increase desire by HS students to attend schools with winning football (and basketball) programs. I'm sure Stanford is no exception. However, the Stanford administration doesn't need more applicants. As Mick pointed out, Stanford only accepts about 3.9% of applicants. Maybe there would be an increase in the quality of the accepted applicants, but I think it would be minuscule.
I would bet that an appearance of College Game Day on a campus would also have a positive effect on demand to attend that school. Those broadcasts display the host schools as fun and brimming with school spirit.
