Went to the game today with wife & older son. None of us was disappointed. Stanford was wholly overmatched by one of the top teams in the country. They could have made a game of it if they'd been able to hit the side of a barn from outside, and if da Silva had made more FGs than turnovers.

The defense was great for about 30-35 mins but then wilted due to depth. Kansas has it, Stanford doesn't.

This is easily a 20-win Stanford team, maybe 23-25. For the first time in a decade (or more), I'm genuinely interested in Stanford MBB.

Also keep in mind that every player who got minutes today has at least one more year of eligibility. I don't see anyone on this roster leaving early for the NBA, so next season could be genuinely exciting.
