Clue: Former SF Giant
Would you believe Johnny Cueto in 2015? Game 2 v. the Mets.

Name the two former Stanford players work for playoff teams
I'll have to think a bit more about those working for playoff teams.
Of course, A. J. Hinch - managing the Tigers
And Sam Fuld - I believe GM for the Phillies?

A recycled item that can now be updated. When Cal hosts ESPN Game Day tomorrow, the list of Power 4 schools that have never hosted it will be reduced to six. Name the six.

I read an article this week about this topic so I won’t list the schools. However, I should note there are five left not six (Cal was the sixth).

Really surprised the number is so low. How about Iowa State, BYU, Cincinnati, Maryland, SMU and Rutgers?

Process of elimination: Wouldn't be Big 10 or SEC, so likely obscure ACC and Big-12. Let's go with:
Maryland, Rutgers, Wake Forest, Houston, Kansas State, and...just for grins...NC State.

Got it.
It won’t be long before SMU receives a visit. They are building a program worthy of the attention GameDay brings to a campus.

My last guess, as entertaining as this is:
Maryland, Syracuse, SMU, Rutgers, Louisville and Illinois

Illinois is correct.
