To amplify, some kids who might never play again are making tackles and the crew won't mention them. Awful.

I was looking up numbers on the roster like mad and kept saying "who?" even when I found them. Would indeed have been nice for their families if the crew would have announced their names.

Quarterly trend -- dropoff noticable by quarter:  21  17  14  10. 
especially with Chryst & Love out.

Sure, but it was always going to be hard to sustain a 21 point quarter.  Plus, even our lowest scoring total, if held for the entire game, would have been enough to beat the 30 point spread.

Really tough to complain.

Speights is injured. OSB is also injured.

Well, either Stanford is really good or Rice is really bad. Or both.

Love looked good. Wedington looked good, Stewart looked good. Chryst was unimpressive. I thought Costello showed promise, though he seemed too eager to rifle the ball.

We scored 62, the most we'd scored since the 63-13 win over C.al in 2013, the year we beat five ranked teams and faced Michigan State in the Rose Bowl.  It was the most we'd scored in an opener since 1969's 63-21 victory over SJSU.  Stanford finished 7-2-1 with a #19 final ranking -- #14 before the bowl games were played -- but weren't invited to a Bowl game.  Only U$C went to a bowl from the Pac-8 that year.  Still, Rose Bowls each of the next two years.

I'm feeling pretty good about this year.

Actually, I expected it to be much worse. I figured once we got up 38-0 it would be all handoffs into the line. It wasn't.
As far as Chryst is concerned, I thought he looked fine for a guy coming off a bad knee injury. His stats were good. The true test, of course, will be against U$C.

This is interesting to me and might be the biggest thing to analyze as we wait for SC. Look at those completion percentages! All 3 QBs were <60%, but had YPA of at least 8.9. Are we going back to the 2013-style offense, where every pass is downfield? Or was this just "let's practice the hard throws" and we'll see more short-to-intermediate stuff open up later? As we saw in 2013, relying on those longer, harder-to-complete passes can make an offense kind of boom-or-bust. I hope we have the short stuff in the playbook (with Irwin and these TEs it seems that we'd have to...) but didn't need/want it against Rice.

My opinion is that there are vast tracts of the playbook we are holding back for USC

I think Shaw was using the game to practice some things that need work at game speed, to prep for USC and the rest of the season. So he wasn't going to go into turtle mode and shut down the passing game just to avoid running up the score.
