David Shaw has now solidified himself as one of the best coaches in the country.  His team has gotten better each week, and the biggie, his choice of starting QB, has been vindicated.  He hasn't been great, but he has been good enough, and he will get better.  Shaw is steady as a rock and his confidence in what his team does and how it does it demonstrate how the players buy in completely to what they are doing.

Everyone thought Stanford's success was all Harbaugh, Gerhart, and Luck.  The reality is Harbaugh and Shaw worked together for what, seven years.  They obviously worked together to develop their style.  Harbaugh tool it to the 49ers and now Shaw has just kept it going with Stanford.  Stanford knocked both U.S.C. RBs out of the game.  They beat the crap out of U.S.C. 

The most impressive comment I heard in that presser was how this was not a special win, how we expect to win games like this.  I don't think there is any possibility for any "let down" in Seattle. His team buys into what he is selling way too much for that to happen, IMO.
