IT WAS A GREAT WIN FOR THE STANFORD TEAM & FANS, NO DOUBT!

In the grander scheme of college football, it wasn't a quality win.  I'm judging through the playoff lens, because this is the context in which "quality win" really means anything, and to what Stanford aspires. 

I highly doubt when UW knocks off Utah, it will be called a quality win, though in UW's case, given how weak its schedule is Utah might be the 3rd best team UW faces during the season.  Utah is probably the 7th-8th best team Stanford plays in the regular season, after UW, WSU, U$C, SDSU, UCLA, and ND, maybe even ASU.

Given that Washington plays Utah in Seattle, I agree with you. If they were playing in SLC I would feel different.
They have one tough road game (us). Ar least I hope we are up to making it tough for them.
