There is maybe 5000 people total, and almost no students.
Gorgeous weather, 12:30pm kickoff, alumni weekend…there are no excuses.
This photo was at the end of the 1st quarter.

I go back to 1967 and there are fewer people here than we had against WSU in a monsoon.
Yup, reality sucks.

Another stop from our D
Another opportunity for O to do something good

That photograph is a harsh reality of where Stanford football is at. I don't think there is a student section. How many students are at the game; maybe a hundred?

So, unless I'm mistaken, our only TD on O so far was a 1-yard "run" by Lamson. WTF?!

Daniels throws to Mosley covered by 3 guys?!
Of course ends in a pick

WF intercepts a Daniels pass at the 43. GOOD LORD, how indescribably BAD we are! If I were TT, I'd consider hara kiri, but them maybe he's part of the reason why we are so bad. Has Daniels still not learned to throw the ball away when his receiver is covered by multiple defenders? Apparently not. Remember the Clemson game when he showed he likes to throw into multiple coverage!

We suck more than is imaginable. WF is lousy, but we are just gifting this game to the Demon Deacons.

They are just marching down the field, as if we took our defenders off for a bit of R 'n R.
I picked WF to win 35-17. Once again I appear to have underestimated how many points we'd give up over 4 quarters.
Helpful offsides by Bailey! Yikes. They get another down to score from the 1.

To be fair, it is better than that. I would say 250-300.

Scoreless 3rd Q. As poor as we've played, we still can win this game. GO CARD!

Marty, did you undergo CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing to implant the unquenchable optimism gene?
We're breaking out our long passing game!
At least I've been disabused of the naive notion that Elijah Brown could make a major difference by himself.
At least this looks like a decent drive, with a good balance of running and short passing. So much for that extended drive.

We're only down one score. I'd rather be an optimist than a perpetual pessimist, whiner, and someone who would not even be posting on this thread if we were winning.

The drive continues. Daniels is accurate so far in this drive.
