    It's a good thing we got this inserted (75K) into the commentary early.

    Lambright beat Stanford

    I guess the thread I started on this was too late, didn't realize this was here.

    In Jame's defense, that ASU team he lost to went 12-0 and went on to beat Nebraska in the Fiesta bowl.

    Can we all agree that maybe Sark really didn't leave the cupboard full of talent?

    I can't tell if you're being sarkastic.

    Or, perhaps you're just being ignored?

    I'm not sure we can all agree Sark has really left. There were times the players looked like his team last night, which is highly disturbing. Also, Sark is given far too much credit for returning the program to respectability (according to the media), and Petersen's success (assuming he returns the program to elite status) will be lauded as Sark's too, for who but Sark could have retrieved the program from 0-12? The media bias toward Sark is nauseating.

    Unfortunately, Sark's imprint appears indelible. But, I hope near future conference titles, Rose Bowl victories, and even a national championship will establish Petersen's legacy.
