Here's something that makes me nervous. I assume we all agree that Stanford must score at least in the low thirties, if not in the mid to high thirties to win. What worries me, looking at the matchup's statistics (and recalling it), was what an outlier it was offensively. Hogan was, of course, on fire -- fitting some throws into tiny, momentary openings. In terms of degree of difficulty, I don't think Hogan's had another similar performance this year. (N.D. was less difficult -- they sold out to stop McCaffrey and exposed their DBs.)

Meanwhile, SC did quite a good job against McCaffrey, limiting him to 4.4 yards per carry.

On the upside, I think we're a better offense since then. The line gave up a few sacks and QB pressures that maybe they won't this time around. But I'm worried that instead of providing excellent output, it'll only be good output. And with our defense, well...
