I'm chomping at the bit for Big Game.  Our boys will road pave Low APR U's defense early, often, and all day

As close as Low APR U came, they still haven't had a quality WIN in the Yikes era.  Close only counts in horseshoes & hand grenades.

I think this probably falls under the category of Woofing.  Furthermore, it seems like whistling through the graveyard to ignore the fact that the B.ears took Utah to the wall.  Utah was the team that had been shaping up to be our stiffest challenge.  And how many times during the Yikes era did his team suffer six TO's?  Probably not going to be something that we can expect going forward.

I would agree if the game were next week.  But there is six weeks less one day between now and the Big Game.  Lots of ups and downs for both teams between now and them.  Case in point, Stanford's ups: Stanford's offense has scored more points in every game this season than the game immediately prior, for four consecutive games (6, 31, 41, 42, 55).  When was the last time that happened?
