What was up with that fullback-between-the-legs run that went for 2 yards? Not the effective kind of trickeration :p
and to review...after the trickeration play?
Stanford had a turnover?
Stanford scored a FG?
Or Stanford scored a TD?
Yeah, right...a TD. Hey, I think DeCastro probably missed a few blocks along the way too, but a win is a win. And a TD scoring drive is a TD scoring drive. If the bit of trickeration kept the team upbeat during practice, or gave the O-Line something fun to work on then it all paid off. IMHO
