I was hoping to see some shuffling on the defensive side of the ball as well. #23, #10 and #21 all had poor games. Not sure when the accountability kicks in.

Here's where our lack of depth at D-line and Safety really is an issue.  On the D-line, the alternatives are walk-ons or true freshmen.   Safety has been a sore spot for a while now, and McGill is injured.  Hopefully one of the freshmen or sophomores emerges.

Last year Thomas Schafer was a pleasant surprise as a fifth year player but Stanford may not be so lucky this year. Might want to start mixing Armitage in. He may be the (much) better option by the end of the year. Options at safety, as you note, are limited. But again need to try and find someone to upgrade the position among your fereshmen and sophomores.

I saw both Aybar and Armitage on the sidelines. I don't know if the travel roster is restricted for non-conference games like it is for conference games, but I thought it was a good sign that both made the travel squad.
