Here's the gostanford.com blurb:

Notables

• Stanford plays its first home game in 16 days on Tuesday night, hosting San Francisco at Maples Pavilion. Despite being picked to finish 10th in the Pac-12 preseason poll, the Cardinal has continued to surprise as one of the country’s most improved teams.
  
• Stanford is off to its best start since 2011, when the Cardinal also won nine of its first 10 games. The Cardinal’s seven-game winning streak to begin the season was its longest since a 10-0 start in 2008. Last season, Stanford won its ninth game on Jan. 19 and 10th game on Jan. 26.
  
• Stanford has held all 10 opponents to under 70 points, representing the first time the Cardinal has accomplished the feat since a 10-game stretch from Dec. 28, 2010-Jan. 29, 2011. Stanford has allowed 57.7 points per game, a total which leads the Pac-12 and ranks 15th in the country.
  
• Stanford’s nine victories have all come by double digits, including four 20-point wins and a season-best 31-point triumph over William & Mary on Nov. 21. Stanford produced 10 double-digit wins overall in 2018-19. Meanwhile, the Cardinal’s +18.1 scoring margin ranks second in the Pac-12 and ninth in the nation.
  
• In addition to playing elite defense, Stanford’s 50.4 percent field goal percentage leads the Pac-12 and ranks eighth in the country. The Cardinal has connected on 50.0 percent or better from the floor in eight of its nine games this season.

I knew we were playing good D but these stats were a bit refreshing to me.
Like in baseball when they say, "Speed comes to the ballpark every day" maybe we can say "our D comes to the gym every game"? Hope it shows up tonight too!
