If it helps folks, Oregon partisans were similarly bummed by their recent meager 10 point victory over WSU. It didn\'t seem to hurt their preparation for UCLA. At least we didn\'t have our starting QB knocked out of the game.

Face it, WSU is playing much better than they were earlier in the season though the Dr Lou-loo types will never acknowledge it. When we have our own network we can address these issues. They were engaged and we were workman like. Nothing new.

I was a scout team redshirt in 1970 when we played Purdue around the 4th or 5th game. Notre Dame had beaten them 48-0 the week before so all week in practice our guys were doing the "49-0" chant. The coaches kept saying they were a solid club and we had to focus, but c\'mon, we were Stanford Men, we could read the papers; those guys sucked!

So we got spanked, 26-14.

Washington\'s 44-14 beatdown by AZ may present a similar challenge next week. Or, we could be refocussed and dispatch the Huskies with prejudice.

Happily, multi-phrenic Bares / Riley put out a Stanford-esque effort against ASU so maybe they got that out of their system. At the least it provides JH something else to work with for this year\'s Big Game.
