The barrage of open threes against a tight nose-to-nose defense might seem strange until you noticed that Florida State double teamed Raynaud consistently and that help often came from the weak side wing defender.  

Usually Florida State fronted Raynaud to deny him the ball.  When Stanford threatened the inside pass over the top FSU would flash the weak side wing to double-team and present Raynaud with temporary (and often aggressively played) backside help.  Last night Stanford did an EXCELLENT job of reversing the ball and finding that man temporarily left open.

This was my first game at Maples this year and I was impressed by a Stanford team that had a clear plan on offense and defense. Very encouraging!
