USC always has a “rising” vibe, followed by an “overrated” vibe once they take the field.  Maybe this time it will be different, but let’s see them play some games before we announce the newest guy the savior.

That being said, I’m not disputing your characterization of Stanford.  We are in for a tough year; no amount of wishcastung will produce us a experienced and deep defensive line.

The defense will struggle this fall. That's pretty much a given.
Just hoping that with McKee throwing to a talented, experienced receiver corps and E.J. and Filkins running behind what will hopefully be an improved OL, we will be able to score enough points to allow us to win at least some games.

...and players undergo body-transplants and morph into Bama/Georgia athletes while Shaw channels Saban in the next six weeks following a successful personality overhaul. Oh, and Steve Frost loses his loud-mouth impersonation of NBA public-address clowns. And Muir finds a new job somewhere else.
