Probably not. Around here analytics trumps fandom and hope is in short supply.
I wonder if the cardboard will be a FANdumb, or is it just me?
Made up of a concatenation of the acronym FAN as in "Forgets All Negatives" and the self-descriptive "dumb".
In furtherance of this thought, I'll let my misdirected and misguided emotional part of my brain overrule the pea-sized analytical portion, and predict a 28-24 Cardinal victory.

If the 0-6 Kennesaw State can beat the 5-0 Liberty, we can beat the oxymoronically named Demon Deacons.
Put a glide in your stride and a dip in your hip.

Good one, Marty. If only it were true.
Cmon now. This is far and away the easiest game we've played since Cal Poly.

Sorry, Marty!
I picked against Stanford. I'll still be at the game proving that as with second marriages, Hope, however faint, triumphs over Experience.
I now think of Stanford victories in the same way I thought of Santa Claus. 6 days of the week I scoff but Game Day is like Christmas Eve, on that day I believe.

In 1938 Neville Chamberlain declared "Peace in our time", Superman first appeared in Action Comics, Seabiscuit beat War Admiral ....... and C.a.l last won the Rose Bowl.

I think of our Offense, if it were a person, like I think of Santa Claus. On some days, like Christmas, he shows up.
On other days, like Thanksgiving, Easter, etc., he's a No Show.

Taking the Card 35-32.
I think giving Elijah Brown a full week with the 1's and TT and co a week to review film to deliver a brobdingnagian improvement. I expect a much crisper team and offense this week. I suspect last week went way worse that TT anticipated and he needed to make a move before the game got too far ahead of him. That's why the offense felt very out of sync.
Ready to watch this team win 4 of it's last 5 and go bowling. :)

Don't believe what you've read in this thread. Nobody knows how this game is going to turn out (definitely include me).

With tight odds, this could be a coaching duel against Clawson, who might have been on some people's lists for the Stanford job after 2020.
Who will make the best adjustments and play calling as the game unfolds?, rather than one team (like CLEM or SMU) simply having better athletes.
Elijah Brown gets a clear shot here at QB.
Somebody gotta bust it open at RB.
