I can''t tell that PaloAlto is pleased with the team overachieving.  Or is it just that he sees the green grass on the other side of the fence?

He is consistent.

Playing Wisconsin the first weekend could be a brutal wake-up call about how much the team will need to improve.  I won't let a loss at the start of the season keep me from being optimistic.

AVCA putting Stanford at #5 in the pre-season poll is very generous IMO based on what they lost to graduation.

On 10/2 you quote a post of mine from 8/25 prior to the season. I have no idea what your point is.  If you have an evaluation of Stanford or other teams that differs from mine, why don't you just present it in a straightforward manner.
