Alabama is much more beatable than most years, with or without Bryce. Ohio State still hadn't played anybody. Georgia seems like maybe the duck game could've been an exception, not the rule, though hard to say. Clemson is not usual Clemson.

#13 Kentucky loses to a bad South Carolina team. #19 Kansas loses without their starting QB and should frankly stay ranked. #25 LSU never should've been top 25. #11 Utah might drop out of the rankings because the Pac12 doesn't get the SEC treatment. #21 uw was a fraud and #16 BYU loses. Other close ones, but no cigar.

Unless the Beavers pull this one out it’s back to the basement for them. They might have open tryouts for a quarterback.

For as good of an offensive mind Jonathan Smith has, he and his staff have still yet to develop a QB that make their system work to its fullest potential.

Beavs score another TD but fail on a 2-pt conversion once again. Not sure why they started chasing points on these conversions. They're now down 24-22 with 6 minutes left in the 4th..

Beavs are going to pull off an amazing comeback. Down 5 with 24 seconds left, Gulbrandson threw a pass along the sideline to Tre'Shaun Harrison, who went up and over a Stanford DB for the catch and was able to race down the field for like a 60-yard TD.

Wild finish for the Beavs! Stanford choked that one away.

Will Shaw make it to the end of the year?

That last drive for the beavs was ridiculous. No timeouts and a minute to drive 75 yards, they get about 15 yards in 33 seconds, and I was pretty certain they just weren't going to have enough time to get down field. Harrison pulled a rabbit out of his ass, not hat, and I don't know what #24 was doing when he overran the play. Their chances for bowl eligibility are way up after that one.

It was just bad coaching. The guy underneath has to be sure he can tip the ball, or just push the wr out. They don’t need a hero, just tmake a tackle. Easy. Then 24 basically runs out of the way, when all he has to do is make a basic tackle. The db coach should be walking home.

I sure hope so! Just like Clay Helton and Jimmy Lake I hope he never gets fired.

Stanford is in an awkward spot with Football.

They can't benefit from the Transfer Portal due to their academics and recruiting is already a problem because of that.
They don't really care about Football to begin with and have a severe fan/interest level as it relates to football even when they've had good teams.
These problems are deterrents for trying to hire a decent on the rise replacement to change the trajectory of the program as who would want to coach with those inherent issues?

Whenever Shaw's contract is up is when I'd expect to see Stanford possibly move on.

They are paying Shaw around 8-9mill a year to give them these results? They could pay someone far less for losing seasons.

Is RG3 the worst commentator of all time? also, the main commentator is terrible. don't think I've ever witnessed a worse combo.
