Shaw just took the ball out of Burns hands in the second half. Only threw 7 pass attempts in the 2nd half.
A lot of:
1st down - stuffed run
2nd down - stuffed run
3rd down - don't convert
in the second half.
My biggest takeaway: Like I predicted, OL was my biggest worry, and for good reason. Our whole offense depends on good OL play, and in the second half, they were trash except for the one CMac TD when Fainaka and Wilson blew open a massive hole.
Great defense, except from Hoffpauir pretty much. Hopefully all these Holder uncalled PI's don't get called against USC.
If Phillips is out, that will cost us 1-2 games this year. He was looking that good today.
Burns was VERY impressive to me. No delay of games, made 3rd down throws, beautiful deep ball to Rector. I hope he gets to play the whole game against USC.
I suspect our play calling will be a lot more interesting once we have Bryce Love back. I'm praying he's back for USC.
Looking at the box score, it's a wonder how we won this game....

It really was a tale of two halves.
First half, we had 10 first downs. End of the game, we only had 13 first downs...
First half, we dominated time of possession. End of the game, they beat us in time of possession. (That's not Stanford Football at all)
They also out gained us 335-272.
Only 105 rushing yards for our team today. Not nearly good enough. OL, that's on you.
What did win us the game?
8 Sacks
2 Picks
A solid 17 point effort by the offense in the first half led by Burns.
4 of 5 punts inside the 20 by Bailey, who should be the MVP.
No delay of game
Only 4 penalties
