Now, a couple of home games against unranked teams. And then the final two pre-season games, on the road against South Carolina and Tennessee. And then the PAC-12 gauntlet.
I feel the start of today's game, with Brink on the bench, might suggest that we may try that line up some more. Opponents will need two game plans to play Stanford.
As for rankings, I don't really care. The Maryland we played is not the team hyped on ESPNW right now. With the personnel they played today, they aren't a top-10 team, but do you rank them per today's team, per their record, or per their potential? (And, you can ask that about Stanford too). I think #2 and #4 drop. Whether others jump past us, I don't know. I don't think #18 should jump past us, but they'll move up. I'd say anywhere from #5 to #8 for Stanford.
