Best I've seen them play for 40 minutes all season (the first 35 @ MSG were pretty darn good)!

Unfortunately I couldn't see it owing to Time Warner's continuing tiff with MSG.
Anyway, just getting the win against one of the leaders in the Pac-12 is pretty big; blowing them out is a real statement of intent.
EDIT: We're now alone in first place in the Pac-12. When was the last time we led the conference in basketball?

The Pac-12 is obviously not the basketball power that the league (if we include the Pac-10 as part of this discussion) has been, but I think there are definite signs of some improvement taking place as the season progresses. Stanford is young and still learning, but put together a full 40 minutes of work today on both sides of the ball. I think starting Zimmerman adds something to the team. He doesn't fill up the stat sheet, but there are always guys in team sports who change the dynamic and attitude of the team with hustle and grit, and Zimmerman seems to me to be one of those guys. It may be a case of his hustle being contagious. Josh Huestis is becoming a MAN before our very eyes. More efficient on the offensive end of the court, always tough on the defensive end, excellent on help defense altering shots. I'm very hopeful about the rest of the season.
BUT, Cal is also showing itself to be very solid, and while I thought UCLA was about to implode when they kicked their best player from last year off the team, in fact they seem to be rejuvinated. One wonders how many of their problems were caused by tensions within the locker room, and between Reeves Nelson and Ben Howland. I think all three of these teams ultimately have a shot at the NCAA, though UCLA may have to win the Pac-12 or the Pac-12 tournament to get there. That is still a far cry from the heyday of 5 or more teams from the Pac-10 making the tournament, but there are some signs of improvement.

Saturday made me very hopeful, but Thursday night, even with the win, made me very doubtful. If the young talent keeps getting better and can find some consistency, then they will be a legit tourney team. It is a fun team to watch because unexpected joy keeps elbowing out expected heartbreak.Â

Stanford could go from the top of the standings to the middle very quickly over the next two weekends. Three consecutive road games at Wash, WSU and C.al. If you aspire to win the conference, you have to win on the road. Right now, only one school in the conference has > 1 conference road win (Oregon has won 3 of 4 on the road). If you aspire to win the conference, you have to be a road warrior.
