ESPN's take:

Lombardi: This might be the most talent Stanford has ever had at the skill positions and in the secondary. Can the Cardinal match that with sturdiness at quarterback and in the trenches? of exceedingly large proportions questions such as this make Week 1 the wild card that it is, but expect the Cardinal to roll at home 41-24.

It's really interesting reading the media's take on what Stanford's strengths are heading into this season. It wasn't that long ago when our QB and OL/DL were the most solidified units on the field, according to the analysts, whereas our skill positions and secondary units were seen as the overwhelming weaknesses. My oh my how the tables have (seemingly) turned in just a handful of years.
