Stanford got thoroughly dominated and was only close early due to TCU penalties and turnovers. The Furd will not be a contender this year.

If only there were chat threads for today’s games

I am just going to assume this is the chat thread.

There the Sonny we know and hate. jawing at the refs as usual

That was a weak unsportsmanlike call tho

Expand full comment

Yes. The call when the players were in the box was sketchy.

It seemed to me that many calls were reminiscent of times when the refs seemed to shill for $C.

My God, I just don’t miss $C

Anyone else feel conflicted about rooting against stanford this season? After what we went through with Stanford last season and them sticking with us and us being cast offs to the eastern wastelands, I just don’t have the same Pac10/12 hate for them anymore in games that aren’t against us.

I trust that the hate will come back in November, probably after the first good play that the furd makes at big game

Nope. I have a lifetime commitment to root against the Furd and I shall never waver in my hatred for them.

A lot of that hate has been transferred to ucla and usc.

Yeah, $C Hate>Furd Hate in perpetuity

Expand full comment

Yep and I would add ucla to that as well. I might even elevate ucla above usc since ucla is our sister school and them leaving put the nail in the Pac12 coffin. I honestly believe the Pac12 could have survived without usc.

I’m stewing on it. Might depend upon the pushback they may give for our Calimony.

I am the same. I figure the better they look the better we look.

And, yes, *sniff. The old hate is gone… for now.

Wilcox is watching this Wisconsin game with the biggest grin on his face.

Let’s see if Sonny can finally get that elusive win against Stanford tonight.

I tell yah, I am watching the game on YoutubeTV and the delay is longg, seems like 5 mins at least. This does not bode well for syncing the radio feed or avoiding spoilers on the live blogs with folks who view it on direct (small d) tv broadcasts.

Sonny D?

Can anyone tell me why a pundit said Stanford does or can’t use the Portal?

It should be interesting to see how Jonathan Smith’s Michigan State looks.
