Started this now to kick the Big Game Thread off of page one. I want to bury that memory.
GO CARD!
The announcers start the broadcast with the proclamation that "Let's face it, this is not a sexy matchup."
Will this be Troy Taylor's last game coaching Stanford football?

Can someone explain to me why the SJS coach is wearing a shrub around his neck?
Stanford received the kickoff. First play, minus 2. Second play, minus 4. Third play, INT. Great start TT.
At least the D held them to a 3 and out.

SJSU coach is Polynesian. He coaches with a lei around his neck.

First down on 4th will be a frequent Play Call today. Lamson delivers, AGAIN.
Then into the Red Zone to Ayomanor. 35 yards. GOOD. Let's do that.

That is quite the lei. Couldn't he just wear a Hawaiian shirt?
Oh great. First and goal from the 21.
Oh good, we score 3. So now we are playing at the blistering pace of 1.5 points per drive.
Saved by the flag. We got torched.
Nice play by Wright.
Right on! D holds and we block the punt. Now let's score!!
EA with 5 catches already in the first Q.
Oh crap, Leyrer is injured. Doesn't look too bad as he walked off the field.
What a run by Tabb!!! He's a bull moose. Lamson time!!
We get stoned 3 times at the goal line. Turnover on downs and we give them a gift of 15 yards to keep them out of the shadow of the goal line.
Now our points per drive is down to 1.

Enjoy the game folks. I'm tuning into the WBB game now.

Let me call the plays.
There is no way I can do worse than what we are seeing so far today.

Failing the goal-to-go possession with predictable tendencies has meaningfully soured me on Taylor. Unacceptable to not get the TD there. Bobby April rushing three on the SJSU TD play was mind-boggling. Ashton's INT was rough. We are being kept alive by SJSU penalties (explosive plays and TD play called back). I don't understand this defensive effort. The offensive issues are Daniels, the OL, and Taylor.
Also it's not like we didn't know #3 was going to be a problem. Contain him.
I called the single-coverage TD fade to #3. Bobby April is officially ignoring the FBS leader in receptions, runner up in yards, and leader in TD receptions.

You might have thought to scout SJSU, but I suspect some of the players and coaches were busy this week scouting for better opportunities next year.

The day the program loses to SJSU is the day Stanford needs to fire the staff and hire new.
Sick of this mediocre product and losing record. No more excuses.
Like not going to a Bowl? Sick of it.

Got my vote. Second and goal at the 1/2 yard line. Lamson in. Runs right, loses two yards. Runs left gains them back. Fourth and goal, once again Taylor goes for it. Stanford turns it over on downs and gets an unsportsmanlike conduct. Now 14-3.
Not that it matters, but by now every team on the schedule knows when Lamson comes into the game, he's gonna run. Fools no one. I won't bother to look at the team's fourth down percentage, but my guess is it's not very good.

Nash is a sixth-year senior, I just learned. Against our freshman defensive backs, it's brutal. Gotta get them some pass rush and scheme help.
SJSU players and coaches are also auditioning for potential new jobs next year and starting to look good. After this game, I don't know if anyone would take more than a couple of our players/staff as transfers/new hires.

Wlat H*rris lost to Davis and SJSU in his final season. Will the boosters speak their minds this year?

Daniels to Mosley for a TD on 4th and 3 from the SJSU12. See what happens when you are two-dimensional instead of one-dimensional?

Just when you think things are hopeless...ta dah, TD Stanford!

According to the graphic, we've allowed the SJSU QB to be perfect on his last 10 or 11 throws for over 100 yds and 2 TDs. I wonder if that coincides with the decision to rush three in some prevent defense...just like Wlat H*rris...
And now we've allowed SJSU to kick a FG attempt on 42 sec of possession. What a waste.

We're going to lose this game.
Hope I'm wrong, but I don't think I'm going to be.
Oh well, typical of the season.
