One thing David Shaw's team knows is all it has to do is win and it will be in the playoff. Stanford controls its destiny as much as any team in college football this season, and is one of the few teams that can lose one game and get in no matter what, and lose two games and still have a legit shot at getting in (depending on who the losses are against), due to the difficulty of the schedule.
I don't know how to assess this, but Stanford's schedule might be the most difficult one in college football history. My guess is we'll be hearing David Shaw mention this quite a lot if Stanford is in the hunt for the Pac-12 title in November.
