how do they compare to the 2005 UC Davis team.....

Ouch!
In recollection, a headline from back then:  UC Davis Stuns Stanford For Improbable 20-17 Win

Hopefully TT isn't another Wlat.
However we did go on to win five games that year. I don't think that would be considered a horrible outcome for 2024.

I was at that UC Davis game.  It was the worst experience in my Stanford Football fandom .... That's saying something as I had Season Tickets again the next year in 2006 (1-11 overall, 0-42 vs USC) through the home stadium turnkey's of the last three miserable seasons (7-52 Utah, 6-42 Oregon, etc).    

UC Davis in 2006 was worse. There was no possible recovery for Harris after watching that atrocity.

The contrast under Harbaugh was spectacular following the Harris low where many fans had stopped believing that Stanford COULD play high-end football. It's also why Harbaugh ranks higher in fan's affections than Shaw even if Shaw took us to the first Rose Bowl wins of many fan's lifetimes.
