Upset alert: California @ Oregon

Heh. You know, every now and then I forget just how snarky and sardonic that Stanford sense of humor is.

Being an Old Blue means never accepting success.

How weird is it for you to be typing Lucky Guy: Washington State's Paul Wulff?

Excellent job, again, but it does seem a bit strange that Stanford @ Colorado can be both a great game, and one requiring body bags.
