Stanford @ #17 UCF (Sat., 12:30 p.m., ESPN)
Stanford sure has quite the non-conference schedule, though I wonder if this was thought of as a particularly tough matchup when it was originally scheduled. UCF is at least a TD favorite. I suppose it's an opportunity for the Cardinal to show that they're "not dead yet." I think I want the Cardinal to lose convincingly so they have less confidence going into their game vs. the Ducks next week.

These teams aren't your daddy's Stanford and UCF. Furd is not real good this year. UCF by 10.

It's hard to believe that Arciegga-Whiteside isn't still on the team, seems like he was there for 9 years, UCF by 12.

Costello is back, which means the bad throws by Mills that killed drives against USC should be mostly a thing of the past. Stanford didn't have the athletes to keep up with USC, but UCF doesn't have that level of athlete. I don't know know how to put a score on this, but instead I'll say that Stanford has just barely under a 50% shot at winning this.

31 to 7 halfway thru first quarter. Stanford's running is okay, but Costello is lacking, er being polite there.

Our Defensive coach needs to watch UFC and learn what they are doing so he can apply it next week .

That is for sure.Quietduck wrote:Our Defensive coach needs to watch UFC and learn what they are doing so he can apply it next week .
halftime: 38 to 7 and yards are 413 to 165. Is it possible that Stanford is bad on both O and D?

UCF has a ton of talent. Every guy on the field is big and fast. Doesn't look like a G5 team at all.

That's what happens when you've had a bit of success and have coaches who know how to take advantage of their prime recruiting ground.wepto wrote:UCF has a ton of talent. Every guy on the field is big and fast. Doesn't look like a G5 team at all.

Wonder how Stanford will respond after getting trounced in consecutive games.

The PAC12 Network guys were saying Stanford's offensive line is the walking wounded. Wonder how many were out and if they will be back for next week.
