I believe this will be a breakout game for Stanford as a team and for Barry Sanders as an individual.  Sarkisian is “faking” these injuries, hoping to make our game-planning more difficult.  It doesn’t work, and in fact the opposite occurs.  Our offensive line gels in a crescendo of efficiency as the game develops and by the fourth quarter we’ll think we’re at IHOP because there are so many pancakes being delivered.

Sanders runs for 110 yards on 14 carries and has 125 yards on 5 receptions.  It’s not just the yardage.  His artistry will be SportCenter fodder non-stop for the next week.  Our tight ends are going to have a field day with three TD’s among them.

Defensively, Stanford will be efficient.  The front seven have periods during the game when it seems they could stop the University of Non-Swimming Nephews all by themselves.  There are some gaffes later in the game and it probably will be enough to make me get nervous.

But I get nervous pretty easy and when we look back at the game video, it will be obvious that the Toe-jams never really had a prayer.

I believe the final score will be:

The University of Phenomenal Student/Athletes – 31

The University of Fake Injuries Are Our Only Strategy - 16
