Good to see the team pick up a tough road win today at BYU, which after our own experiences this weekend, or even 40-4 Clemson losing at 16-28 NC State that has already seen its HC and most of its coaching staff fired mid season, is not a given.
Baseline goal for this weekend at home against Cal has to be at least a series win. I really think we can get a sweep, as Cal's pitching against UW looked really poor.
Stanford does continue to get help from other top 8 competitors losing. In addition to the terrible loss Clemson suffered (and they needed extra innings to avoid the series loss to NC State), LSU lost its series at Auburn, and UW got run-ruled in Corvallis to 12-25-1 Oregon State 11-1.
Three teams that are surging right now (albeit against weaker competition) is Florida State, Duke and now Northwestern.
