Beware the wounded owl?  I have no doubt the coaches will have this team mentally and physically ready to show the home crowd how far this team has come from the one that lost to Washington St & Colorado.

Sadly, I fear the home crowd is going to include 20,000+ empty seats.  If that Friday rain slides into Saturday the number of empty seats could climb quite a bit.  I know Stanford's demands on the conference are a big part of the November scheduling problem, still Rice in late November is not ideal IMHO.

I can't wait.  I love inclement weather.
