My theory:  We showed innovation and creativity at the start because some of those early sequences were scripted or planned -- maybe not explicitly, but mentally, Shaw had earmarked a few starting gestures.  But when it gets into the rapid and intensive battle, he's just leaning back on his reliance on our "identity" ... and his favorite spots on his plastic card.  I join others to encourage them to bring play calling a bit out of Shaw's hands.

This.

I give all the credit to Shaw for sticking with what has worked very, very well for Stanford these last 4 or 5 seasons but it seems like he has no Game Plan B when Game Plan A is clearly not effective. Evidence? I offer this year's Oregon State, Utah, SC games and now RB100.

What's really surprising is that Mason's D is getting shredded.
