We are extremely blessed by being fans of a school that wins so many events across so many sports. I know I've hurt a lot after losses and then I stop to think about how often the other teams lose, and I know I should remember, it is just a game and entertainment. Perhaps when you have some time, you will reread your post and edit it. I don't agree with your sentiment at all. We are fans; they are the ones that work at this sport and allow us to participate vicariously.
Frankly, while I can't remember such a big loss by a Tara team, I thought both teams
1) Played cleanly -- no attempts to take someone's knees out or any kind of dirty play
2) Played with energy -- no one was slaking or just calling it in
I didn't see anything about their play that was embarrassing.
As for the result, I've seen Stanford play amazingly effectively this year. Today, Oregon played better, by a lot.
I think our players should not feel embarrassed. With the kind of character I believe they have, I expect they will double down on being ready for the next game and for the next game against Oregon, should we get a chance (or even two) this year.
