That was quite the game - I think Stanford was still trying to figure out life without Palumbis (1-3 at that point), and the Cornell game provided some (perhaps inflated) confidence that Stanford could win. Stanford went onto beat kal with both teams ranked (has that happened since?) and went to the Aloha Bowl.

Stanford invited Cornell to play that year as part of the Centennial celebration - a special one-off as Stanford was modeled after Cornell way back when.

I don't expect the game ever to be in doubt. But in terms of flow, here is what I think will happen:

McKee and his starting offensive corps will play the first 2 1/2 to 3 quarters and build a 28-3 lead. Then Shaw will put in Patu and a host of other reserves, who will get one more TD, while the D will give up 2 TDs (with one coming very late in the game). Comfortable win, with Shaw not revealing too much of the playbook.

What I remember of that game was that Stanford was trying to figure out how to get out of life with Palumbis.

Memory fades, but I think Palumbis had started the first four games (where we went 1-3) and struggled. Toward the end of the game before, a blowout loss to und, they put some frosh in named Stenstrom, and he actually moved the team. The game against Cornell seemed a good time to try out the frosh. He stuck, Stanford won 7 in a row, Vardell set the single season rushing mark (which has been almost doubled since), and Stenstrom went on to start three more seasons setting passing records and getting pummeled repeatedly.

I also think that was the Big Game where cal rolled up hundreds of personal foul penalties, including on their kicker, and Brian Treggs figured out he couldn't afford to move to Palo Alto.

You'll have to be WAY more specific...I believe that's a long list, my friend.

Oh that game. Again...

RE: 2022 Colgate at Stanford Predictions Thread - cardcrimson - 09-03-2022

Perhaps it's posted already, the spread is around 40 and the over/under is 50.5. So the odds makers have it at 45-5.

On CBS's NCAA schedule / ticket site, Stanford has the third lowest available ticket price at $5 per. Tulane and Maryland are slightly lower. Yikes. . . .

I stand with Tanner McKee - "We are going to be unstoppable" (against Colgate).

On Safari, I am seeing the scores in light type beneath the 10 and 41.

Consensus not as optimistic as 37.5 point line.

Hehe, true. Anyhow, for. your amusement, here's BG 1991:

I had forgotten about all those failed FG attempts.
Of the personal foul penalties - one was on kal's FG kicker, and one was on kal's QB Palawski, when he was on the bench (Stanford was on O).
You'll hear a famiiliar name at 4:14.

anyone else watching live?

Well done, guys!

RE: 2022 Colgate at Stanford Predictions Thread - CompSci87 - 09-03-2022

Sweet! The average guess and my guess were the same, and both exactly right.

My secret was to phone Shaw from my seat and ask him to put in the backup kicker and miss the final extra point.

RE: 2022 Colgate at Stanford Predictions Thread - akiddoc - 09-03-2022

I just laughed when we missed the extra point, knowing the Cardboard consensus.

Vegas sportsbooks are already taking note.

I remember watching the game. As the final score would indicate it was pretty one sided. Cornell had one player whom I thought could have played for Stanford. He was a linebacker who made most of their tackles.

Is it possible to have my prediction from the Colgate game added to the contest totals? I entered my prediction in the thread, but not in the widget, unfortunately…
