Explaining the absurdity of Stanford's loss to Utah.

Utah. Who the fuck are they? Their QB is one of the goofiest looking dudes I've ever seen play. It's hilarious when he runs. Anyway it's been suggested that Stanford lost because of midterms week. What say you? Did their rigorous academic schedule have anything to do with this upset? Vegas thinks they're still the number 5 team in the nation.

They were probably looking ahead to UCLA

Also, Utah is better than most thought, and Stanford is not as good as most thought

Greenblood hit it. Tough game against Washington, they overlooked Utah looking forward to UCLA. It didn't help that Shaw called two straight passes on 3rd and 2 from the 6 with 50 seconds left.

I bet half the Stanford players cheat on their midterms. Perks of being an athlete at a D1 school, even if it's Stanford. Lame excuse.

Its tuff to win the week after Jim Owen's Huskies beat you up

Pass, Fail, Honors is real stressful for the smartest football players in the world. Shaw will continue to be exposed as his tenure continues.

Utah is tough at home and they tend to play good defense overall so when you combine those two they are competitive at home. They played UCLA fairly well. If not for Shaw's boneheaded play calling at the end, Stanford escapes.

When Shaw was still talking about UW in a presser on Tuesday I knew Stanford was in trouble. It was your classic trap game.

Plus I don't think Stanford is that good and their offense is very basic.

Vegas is on bath salts. Stanford was outplayed by Sark's fucking Huskies on the road.

they would've won if shaw didn't go full sark. They were gashing them on the ground and he passes on 3rd and 4th and 2 from the 6

Utah outgained Stanford and won the turnover margin.


Other than that...

Isn't Dennis Erickson calling the plays now for Utah?

Of all states to coach in I'm stunned Erickson is at Utah. Figured he'd settle for UNLV or some OC job in Florida.

Besides Oregon and possibly UCLA the Pac-12 is just overrated in general. Hope PL_SS misses this poast.
