4th quarter
Something I hadn't seen before: USC wins the sprint (they got to the ball first in all 4 quarters) and immediately calls a timeout.
Presumably this was to save a handful of seconds to get their players in position, but it doesn't work out as Stanford intercepts a pass.
But then, Stanford breaks down. USC gets 3 fast break goals, to tie the game at 7-7 after 2:20 in Q4, at the 5:40 mark.
5:08 Stanford scores 32 seconds later on a power play. Stanford 8-7
4:42 USC scores 20 seconds later, 8-8
2:11 USC scores a natural goal after Stanford blocks a shot, 8-9 USC
1:57 Stanford scores 14 seconds later on a power play, 9-9.
1:37 USC scores 20 seconds later 9-10 USC
1:29 Stanford scores 8 seconds later, 10-10
0:59 USC scores 30 seconds later on a power play, 10-11 USC
0:48 Stanford scores 9 seconds later, 11-11
0:22 USC scores 26 seconds later, 11-12 USC
Stanford's shot with 7 on 6 is blocked
Fourth quarter: USC scores 8 goals, twice as many as they had in the first 3 quarters. Ouch.
