The line is currently at Stanford -11, and the predicted score is around 30-19.

No -- see last week's scoring predictions vs Troy. We over-reacted to the KSST data point....
My view is that Shaw didn't care about the KSST result; he had to pick a QB and sort out the Defense. He did.
Vandy only rushed for 2.8 yds a carry; and went 6 for 18 on third down against COST.
FWIW: After week 2, Sagarin has Stanford pegged at #22 with a 79 rating.
Vandy is listed at #128 rated at 58. Stanford wins on the road, so throw away the 3pt home field bonus @Vandy.
Instead of 11, Sagarin has us up by 3 TDs. Which is EXACTLY the spread provided by the Cardboard brain trust.

I expect to see Jack West in Q4.
Personally, provided the game is the blowout we hope, I would absolutely love to see Ari Patu in garbage time, but expect maybe a drive or 2 of West (with few, if any, passes). West is still QB2 after all, as much as I wish he weren't.
Makes sense that McKee got the whole game in his first start despite the blowout.
