Coach Smith at Santa Clara gave a post-game interview where he seems to jump back and forth between thinking Stanford really is that good or fretting that his team might be that bad:  https://x.com/SCUWomensSoccer/status/195...7445161076  He notes they lost 12 players from last year's squad. Lots of praise for Stanford's quality in the interview.

I mean I think both can be true - you can be really good and your opponent is really bad. It’s true we haven’t been tested… but our offense seems to be clicking and in previous years, we haven’t scored this many goals, even against inferior opponents.
